Streetlight Manifesto troubadour

Select language to translate this lyric

This is another story
About a fellow that had to die
He had a beautiful wife
But he also had a roving eye
She planted him by the roadside
She planted him by the roadside
She planted him by the roadside
For all the unfaithful husbands to see
Come, let me tell you the story
Of little Willie, the Troubadour
Who just soured up in the bass, my friends
Little Willie won't sing no more
You know what
She planted him by the roadside
She planted him by the roadside
She planted him by the roadside
For all the unfaithful husbands to see
Willie was handsome as he could be
He met a gal in society
Then Willie was cursed with a roving eye
And never let a pretty chick pass by
So he brought himself a convertible bird
To ride the fine chicks around
He found out he was being followed
So he could never let the top down
Know what happened to him?
She planted him by the roadside
She planted him by the roadside
She planted him by the roadside
For all the unfaithful husbands to see
If he drove a girl to a drive-in
He'd have to go after dark
He knew he always had to hide
So he'd wind up sitting in the park
She caught him down by the water
Loving the fisherman's daughter
She pulled a little pistol from out of the air
And shot her with it right then and there
She planted him by the roadside
She planted him by the roadside
She planted him by the roadside
For all the unfaithful husbands to see
