My Lovely Lady

When I pay my bills 
Gonna leave these Tennessee hills 
Take my lady to the sea 
That's where we both come from 
That's where we both belong 
Think I'll go back to the Keys 

'Cause I don't want the fame that brings confusion 
Where people recognize you on a plane 
All I want's the quiet and the comforts 
That livin' with my lovely lady brings 

Somehow we survived the double talk and jive 
Things are looking better all the time 
I owe her all I can 'cause she made me understand 
The simple way that we should live our lives 

And I don't want the fame that brings confusion 
Where people recognize you on a plane 
All I want's the quiet and the comforts 
That livin' with my lovely lady brings 

Let me tell you now she can eat her own weight up in crab meat 
And there's plenty of that down there by the sea 
Well we're sailin' in those warm December breezes 
Sendin' picture postcards back to Tennessee 

Yes and I don't want the fame that brings confusion 
Where people recognize you on a plane 
All I want's the quiet and the comforts 
That livin' with my lovely lady brings 
Yeah, that livin' with my lovely lady brings
