Down to Her Socks

Down to Her Socks - Kris Kristofferson

Written by：Kris Kristofferson

Here's a song about a good 'ole girl with a big 'ole heart that got

Broke 'cause she was in love with

Some son of a b**ch who didn't love her back enough

Slowly she sank to her knees on the floor

Cursing the freedom she'd won

From the torture she'd vowed not to take anymore

And the victim she'd almost become

For a lady who'd learned all there is about leaving

She sure took a long time to go

But he loved her right down to her socks

And no further

And her feet were the last ones to know

You see the problem is

Sometimes when you take a good

Stiff shot to the heart

It kinda stuns you

Takes a while for the message to get on down to your feet

To get you out of trouble

So you stand there like some old fighter taking punishment

You don't even know you're takin'

The one day you wake up look down at your feet

Find they're just walking you away from me

For a lady who'd learned all there is about leaving

She sure take a hard way to go

But he loved her right down to her socks and no further

And her feet were the last ones to know

And they're still work

Yes he loved her right down to her socks and no further

And her feet were the last ones to know
