For The Beauty Of Wynona

The ingots are burning red

I'm working time and a half

Tomorrow I'll stay in bed

What a life I lead what a life

Laugh in my face why don't you

Laugh with the rest I know it well

I tripped and then I fell for

The beauty of Wynona

At night I toss and I turn

And I try and dial your number

It's changed and God only knows

Where you been since last December

Where you been with that twisted smile

Laying another on the pile

It ain't easy when we go down for

The beauty of Wynona

Girls they skip double dutch

I saw you there prayed my God

But my prayers don't mean nothin much

With a heart that cannot be won

Rain in that wishing well

Right here in my own bed

It ain't easy when we go down for

The beauty of wynona
