Lyrics

He fell in love with a reservation girl
During the time of the sugar beet harvest
They moved out west to the coast
Where he built her a bed made of shagbark from Sherwood Forest
And things were good until she told him goodbye
Said they were better off living separate lives
And maybe they was
Should we stop and take her with us?
Should we stop and take her with us?
Should we stop and take her with us?
For all our time
So we left Worcester with our boots and our bags
And America undressed herself in front of our eyes
My sister told me, my sister told me
That there's gangs in the hills when the hickory falls
And you never know when you're gonna need to run from it all
Like she did
But should we stop and take her with us?
Should we stop and take her with us?
Should we stop and take her with us?
For all our time
Adelaide, you know you're just no good for me
You know it's just so hard to see that you were right
Oh, that you were right
She was dangling her legs over the Little Colorado River
Asking the last bit of sunlight and all of Arizona told me
Arizona told me
So I asked her if she wanted a flight
If maybe she needed a ride to go anywhere at all
Adelaide, you know you're just no good for me
You know it's just so hard to see that you were right
Oh, that you were right
Oh, Willie, I wish that you could love me less
Oh, Willie, I wish that you could love me less
"I tried," he said underneath his breath, "I'm trying"
Oh, Willie, I wish that you could love me less
Oh, Willie, I wish that you could love me less
"I tried," he said underneath his breath, "I'm trying"
Adelaide, you know you're just no good for me
You know it's just so hard to see that you were right
Adelaide, you know you're just no good for me
You know it's just so hard to see that you were right
Oh, that you were right
Oh, that you were right
