She Sure Looks Good In Black

Tears roll down her face Across the black satin lace, Onto the finest suit I've ever wore. All my friends are gathered round Looks like the whole town turned out, To see her cry Like she's never cried before. My mama hates her My daddy blames her, My sister swears it's all an act. But if she had wore red She could have raised the dead, But my lord that women Sure looks good in black. She walked in and stole the thunder From all the pretty flowers, For a minute I thought She was coming back. Bust she just came to say goodbye To a cold ol ' love that died, Oh my lord that woman Sure looks good in black. Close enough to reach her Right in front of the preacher, She showed everybody How to grieve with class. As sure as I live and breath Even this dead man can see, Oh my lord that women Sure looks good in black She walked in and stole the thunder From all the pretty flowers, For a minute I thought She was coming back. Bust she just came to say goodbye To a cold ol ' love that died, Oh my lord that woman Sure looks good in black. Yes my lord that woman Sure looks good in black.
