Big Smith She Let's Me In
I was so sad and so lonely
Out walkin' the streets once again
She was chasin' the barflies out
When she let me in
We talked a couple of hours
We shared a bottle of gin
We stammered and stumbled to her front door
When she let me in
The boys at the bar they amuse her
For a tip she might flash them a grin
But she saves up her laughter 'till after she's home
When she lets me in
Now there's no more sad and lonely nights
When I'm near the warmth of her skin
She turns back the covers and turns off the light
And she lets me in
When I come home late from drinkin'
And runnin' around with my friends
You think she'd put me in the doghouse
But she lets me in
You ask what I treasure about her
It's hard to know where to begin
But I'll start with the way that she opens her heart
And she lets me in
