It's been my real pleasure to share the stage with these gentlemen.
Rayla Montagne.
Sean Bryan.
And a lot of others.
We've been talking a lot about all kinds of songwriters, but one name we kept circling around to was Tans Van Zandt.
We're going to do a song that both John and I love recording.
Go on, kick it off, John.

[C]
[G]
The red she's a power room girl
Wears them sevens or sleeves
Dances like a diamond shines
Tells me lies I love to believe
[D] Her age is always twenty [C]-two
Her laughing eyes are [G] hazel hue
Spends my money like waterfalls
[C] Loves me like I want [G] her to
Red, won't you say to me
Darling, put your guitar on
Have another shot of booze
[C] Sing a sad [G] and waste
[C] [G]
[D] Guitar sings a melody
[C] Guitar sings [G] that Loretta's fine
Long and lazy, blonde and free
I can have her anytime
I can have her anytime
Oh, sweetest death at break of day
[C] Prettiest in the [G] setting sun
She don't cry when [G] I can't stay
At least [C] not till she's [G] all alone
[D] Loretta, I won't be gone long
[C] Keep your dancing [G] slippers on
Keep me on your mind while
I'm [C] coming home, I'm [G] coming home
The red she's a power room girl
Wears them sevens or sleeves
Dancing like a diamond shines
[C] Tells me lies I [G] love to believe
Her [D] age is always twenty-two
[C] Her laughing eyes are [G] hazel hue
Spends my money like waterfalls
[C] Loves me like I want [G] her to
Loves [C] me like I want her to
[C]
Loves me like I [G] want her to
