[00:00:00] An Article from Life - Lefty Frizzell

[00:00:07] Evening sun had just gone down

[00:00:10] On five acres of ground

[00:00:14] I'm in Georgia Georgia

[00:00:17] When the back door opened silently

[00:00:20] She had made some tea and said here

[00:00:24] This is for you

[00:00:27] Then a man selling magazines

[00:00:30] Stopped and began talking with my wife

[00:00:37] And before he left there well

[00:00:41] That man had sold her

[00:00:43] Twelve months subscriptions to life

[00:00:49] And on page twenty-five

[00:00:52] It said all New York

[00:00:54] Was alive really swinging

[00:00:59] And page 29

[00:01:02] It showed a picture of parties and wine

[00:01:08] With people singing

[00:01:12] Well it wasn't long until I saved

[00:01:15] A thousand dollar bill from the harvest

[00:01:22] And I had planned to buy more land

[00:01:25] But baby hit me

[00:01:27] Where it hurts the hardest

[00:01:31] She said I'd like to see New York

[00:01:34] What could I say except to

[00:01:37] Say that's fine

[00:01:41] And while she was packing

[00:01:44] My mind wandered back and

[00:01:48] That article from life ran through my mind

[00:01:54] Oh New York was still alive at 2 am

[00:01:58] When we arrived Sunday morning morning

[00:02:04] She said we'd only stay a week

[00:02:07] 'Cause in seven months our first child

[00:02:10] Would be born

[00:02:14] She knew it meant the world to me

[00:02:16] Still the parties and the wild life

[00:02:19] Changed her mind

[00:02:23] She begged to be set free

[00:02:26] I said it just can't be

[00:02:30] In anger I took my darlings life

[00:02:37] Read about the harvest crime

[00:02:40] Turn to page 29

[00:02:43] I'm featured in an article from life
