T Bone Burnett There Would Be Hell To Pay
When all the ladies heard that he was dead
Some wore orange dresses
And some wore red
When all the ladies heard that he had died
He could hear them wailing
All the way on the other side
Police officer
Walked onto the plan
Don't come any closer
Said Curtis to the man
Curtis said to Delia as she turned to walk away
You so very beautiful but you gonna die someday
Judge he said to Curtis
What's this noise about
Curtis said these evil men
Are trying to put me out
When all the ladies heard that he was dead
Some wore black dresses
And some wore red
He unhooked his revolver and pulled on his gloves
Just before he folded King Queen Jack Ten Nine of clubs
He saw Delia leaning over by the door
Stood at the table and he pulled his forty four
Delia started crying fell on her knees to pray
Delia begged for mercy but there would be hell to pay
When all the ladies heard that he was dead
Some wore orange dresses
And some wore red
When all the ladies heard that he had died
He could hear them wailing
All the way on the other side
Curtis said Your Honor
What might be my fine?
The judge said Poor Boy
You get ninety nine
Other existence identity light
Mojo come to my house then back into the night
Delia was a gambling girl she would scream and shout
She placed a rose at MojoÕs tomb then blew the candle
out
When all the ladies heard that he was dead
Some wore orange dresses
And some wore red
When all the ladies heard that he had died
He could hear them wailing
All the way on the other side
