Love in the Hot Afternoon
Love in the Hot Afternoon
By Gene Watson
CFC
From somewhere outside I hear a street vendor cry filet gumbo
FC
From my window I see him going down the street and he don't know
AmCAmC
That we fell right to sleep in the damp tangled sheets so soon
G7C
After love in the hot afternoon
G7FC
Now the bourbon street ladysleeps like a baby in the shadows
G7FC
She was new to mefull of mystery but now I know
AmCAmC
That she's just a girl and I'm just a guy in a room
G7C
For love in the hot afternoon
FC
We got high in the parkthis morning and we sat without talking
FC
Then she came back here in the heat of the day tired of walking
AmCAmC
Where under her breath she hummed to herself a tune
G7C
Of Love in the hot afternoon
