The Ballad Of Lois Malone - Atlanta Rhythm Section

I knew this ol' gal, down in south Alabama

She was a sight to behold

She drank like a fish, and cussed like a sailor

She was a hell-raisin' soul

Everyone knew Lois, wild Lois

Lois could show you a time (aw what a time)

Oh the good people said, she was not a Christian

She was footloose and fancy free

She was not a lady, but she was a woman

And that’s all that mattered to me

Everyone knew Lois, wild-wild Lois

Lois could show you a time (Lawd what a time)

I miss her sometimes, even though she was crazy (ol' girl)

She was good for my mind (yes she was)

She called me «baby»… all night long!

Proud to have known… Lois Malone!

Last week I ran into, an ol' drinkin' buddy

We swapped a story or two

We drank one to a town, down in south Alabama

One to an ol' gal we knew

I said… here’s one to Lois, wild Lois

Here’s one to all her kind… Lois Malone!

(You know yours and I know mine!)

She called me «baby»… all night long!

I was proud to have known… Lois Malone!
