Jessica(Live At Winterland/1973) - The Allman Brothers Band

[00:00.12]I recall once upon a time
[00:13.4]Livin was so easy and I felt so fine
[00:27.19]But my my my right before my very eyes
[00:37.23]Satan came with fire to burn me
[00:44.18]Wouldn't listen when they warned me
[00:47.71]A dagger in my back while she's calling me honey
[00:57.7]Wouldn't stand back for neither love nor money
[01:16.56]Thirty minutes after my ship set sail
[01:21.29]She put up a sign and my house began to wail
[01:34.43]But why why why I couldn't see it in my little girl's eyes
[04:38.37]She had such a way to fool me Lord she had a way to fool me
[04:51.06]And I would ask the woman Can you find it in yourself to please stand back
[05:30.85]You ain't gonna rule me
[05:58.49]Just when all began to fade
[06:24.39]I reached out threw the Ace of Spades
[06:43.11]I put her on a train to the Everglades
[07:01.43]Now that it's all over and gone
[07:23.14]Somehow I just don't feel so alone
[07:56.05]But lie lie lie it seemed like such a waste of time
[08:02.32]She did not ever seem to know me
[08:30.59]But now it's much too late to show me
[08:56.73]But if I ever see that woman walkin down the street I'll just stand back
[09:22.35]And try to move away slowly
[09:40.26]Oh yeah
