the tall, tall gentleman - carl smith lyrics

it happened in the hills a long time ago
now the story can be told
about a man who stood six*foot*ten
the women all called him the tall tall gentleman
(the women all called him the tall tall man)

he rides through the night on a big black stallion
setting all the girls aflame
the tall tall gentleman on the big black stallion
but they didn’t know his name
(no one knew his name)

well the young girls cried when he left them
the old maids begged him to come again
their every wish every minute
was please come again tall tall gentleman
(please come again tall tall man)

well he rode to miss lucy’s late one night
been going there for years so it seemed alright
a shotgun blast and old tall went down
lucy’s old man was back in town
(lucy’s old man was back in town)

he rode through the hills on a big black stallion
setting all the girls aflame
the tall tall gentleman on the big black stallion
but they didn’t know his name
(no one knew his name)
now high on a mountain in the hills of tennessee
there’s a tall tombstone without a name
flowers on the grave and a stallion stands near
waitin’ on the return of the tall tall gentleman
(waitin’ on the return of the tall tall man)

he rides no more on the big black stallion
setting all the girls aflame
the tall tall gentleman on the big black stallion
they never knew his name
no one ever knew his name
no one ever knew his name
