Philadelphia Lawyer

Way out in Reno, Nevada Where the romances bloom and fade There was a Philadelphia lawyer Making love to a Hollywood maid "Come love, and we'll go ramblin' Down where the lights are so bright I'll win you a divorce from your husband And we can get married tonight" Wild Bill was a gun-totin' cow-hen Ten notches was carved on his gun And all of the boys around Reno Left Bill's Hollywood sweetheart alone One night when Bill was returning From ridin' the range in the cold He was thinkin' of his Hollywood sweetheart Her love was as lasting as gold As he drew near to her window Two shadows he saw on her shade 'Twas the great Philadelphia lawyer Makin' love to Bill's Hollywood maid The night was as still as the desert The moon hangin' high overhead Bill listened awhile through the window He could hear every word that they said "Your hands are so pretty and lovely And your form is so rare and divine Come go back with me to Philadelphia And leave this wild cowboy behind" Now tonight back in old Pennsylvania Amongst her beautiful pines There's one less Philadelphia lawyer In old Philadelphia tonight
