I'll Sure Come a Long Way Down

Loretta Lynn · Singin' With Feelin' [1967]

Take out all my blonde hair today

To change my homey touch

I'll even learn a joke to tell

That makes my pale face blush



I'll change the high neck dress I wear

To low cut dress I found

To come up to what you're wantin'

I'll sure come a long way down.



I'll put on heavy makeup

So the real me won't show through

I'll be the thing I hate the most

If I can't be with you.



I'll come to the dark and dirty streets

In the roughest part of town

To come up to what you're wantin'

I'll sure come a long way down.



--- Instrumental ---



I'll wear my lipstick much too red

And a dress that fits too tight

I'll be the kinda girl you want

To fit into your life.



I'll give up everything that's good

Rechange to the things you bound

To come up to what you're wantin'

I'll sure come a long way down.



I'll put on heavy makeup

So the real me won't show through

I'll be the thing I hate the most

If I can't be with you.



I'll come to the dark and dirty streets

In the roughest part of town

To come up to what you're wantin'

I'll sure come a long way down...
