Lee Hazlewood Suddenly Tennessee Lyrics

We woke up this morning in a Tulsa calaboose
They fed us brown beans for breakfast and they had to
turn us loose
I didn't like that old sheriff and I wish I had told
him so
What he don't know won't hurt me so come on buddy let's
go
Let's go to Suddenly, Suddenly, Suddenly, Suddenly,
Suddenly,
Suddenly, Suddenly, Suddenly, Tennessee

Three nights ago in Phoenix a lady bit off your thumb
But I really shouldn't call her no a lady causetook the
damn thing and run
Then some old boy from Tucson threw the jukebox
straight at me
And I'm really sorry it landed on the spot where your thumb used to be
It'll heal in Suddenly, Suddenly, Suddenly, Suddenly,
Suddenly, Suddenly, Suddenly,
Suddenly, Tennessee

I tell you something old beauty you look a terrible
mess
It's time you took off your blue jeans and got yourself
in a dress
And wash and comb that blond hair and jumped off this
train with me
'cause we're just five minutes from talking to the
folks in Suddenly
Talking about Suddenly, Suddenly, Suddenly, Suddenly,
Suddenly, Suddenly, Suddenly,
Suddenly, Tennessee
