Early one morning the sun was shining
I was lieing in bed.
Wondering if she'd changed it all,
If her hair was still red. And her folks said our lives together,
Sure was going to be rough.
They never did like Mama's homemade dress,
Papas bankbook wasn't big enough. But she was standing on the side of the road
As rain's falling on my shoes.
I'm heading out for the old east coast,
Lord knows I've paid some dues.
Gettin' through.
Tangled up in blue. And she was married when we first met,
But soon to be divorced.
I helped her out of jam I guess,
But I used a little too much force.
So we drove that car as far as we could,
Abandoned it out west.
Split up on a dark side night,
Both agreeing it was best.
And she turned around and looked at me,
As I was walking away.
I Heard her say over my shoulder
We're going to meet again some day,
On the avenue.
We got tangled up in blue. So I had a job in the Paynoff Woods,
Working as a cook for a spell.
But I never did like it all that much,
And one day the axe just fell. So I drifted down to New Orleans
Where I was lucky enough to be employed.
Working for a while on a fishing boat
Right outside of Delaque. But all the while I was alone,
The past was close behind me.
I'd seen I lot of women,
But she never escaped my mind.
Yeah I just grew.
Tangled up in blue. She was working in a topless place,
And I just stopped in for a beer.
I just kept looking at the side of her face,
In the spotlight so clear.
Then later on as the crowd thinned out,
I was just about to do the same.
She was standing there at the back of my chair
Say.
