Girl In Red

Eli Young Band · Live at the Jolly Fox [2006]

She walked in dressed in red

Didn't take long to lose my head

All this time I never knew

There were girls with eyes so blue

Certain of herself, she walked around

As if she knew she owned this town

Talking to her I'd have never guessed

End of the night I'd kiss the girl in red

Chorus:

I'm not the kind to make up my mind

To lose sanity; lose my head

For some girl in red

I smell the smoke; still hear the band

Taste the beer that was in my hand

That night we met runs through my head

I can't forget the girl in red



I'm not the kind to make up my mind

To lose sanity; lose my head

For some girl in red

**Solo**

I'm not the kind to make up my mind

To lose sanity; lose my head

For some girl in red

I'm not the kind to make up my mind

To lose sanity; lose my head

For some girl in red
