Miscellaneous
Hey Loretta (1974)
Well goodbye tub and clothesline, goodbye pots and pans
Iâm a-gonna take a greyhound bus just as far as I can
I ainât a-gonna wash no windows and I ainât a-gonna scrub no floors
And when you realize Iâm gone Iâm a-gonna hear you roar
And youâll say hey Loretta I love you more than my Irish setter
Hey Loretta you donât need me along
Hey Loretta I swear Iâm a-gonna treat you better
Buy you brand new overalls if you donât leave, come back home
I work my fingers to the bone and we donât hardly speak
And all I ever get is a little kiss about once a week
So you can feed the chickens and you can milk the cow
This womanâs liberation honey gonna start right now
And youâll say hey Loretta I love you more than my Irish setter
Hey Loretta you donât need me along
Hey Loretta I swear Iâm a-gonna treat you better
Buy you brand new overalls if you donât leave, come back home
Iâll dress up like a movie star and pretty up my hair
And no one here is a-gonna know what Iâll doing there
Iâll be swinging from the chandelier and bouncing off the wall
Instead of loving just one man Iâll gonna love them all
And youâll say hey Loretta I love you more than my Irish setter
Hey Loretta you donât need me along
Hey Loretta I swear Iâm a-gonna treat you better
Buy you brand new overalls if you donât leave, come back home
