Lulu Walls

Lulu Walls - The Carter Family

Written by：A.P. Carter

One evening

Getting dark

We first met

At the park

A sittin'

By the fountain

All alone

I lifted up my hat

And

Then began to chat

She said

She'd 'low me to see

Her at her home

Such a star

I've never seen

She's as pretty

As a queen

She's as perfect

As an angel

From above

If she'd only

Be my wife

I'd live happy

All my life

With that aggravating beauty

Lula walls

If she was only mine

I would build a house

So fine

And around it

So many

Fences

Tall

It would make me jealous free

That no one else

But me

Could

Gaze upon

That beauty

Lula walls

Such a star

I've never seen

She's as pretty

As a queen

She's as perfect

As an angel

From above

If she'd only

Be my wife

I'd live happy

All my life

With that aggravating beauty

Lula walls

One evening

Getting late

I met her

At the gate

I asked her

If she'd wed me

In the fall

She only turned away

And nothing would she say

That aggravating beauty

Lula walls

Such a star

I've never seen

She's as pretty

As a queen

She's as perfect

As an angel

From above

If she'd only

Be my wife

I'd live happy

All my life

With that aggravating beauty
