John Prine - Lulu Walls Lyrics

One evening, getting dark, we first met at the park
We're sitting by the fountain all alone
I lifted up my hat and then began to chat
She said, she'd allow me to see her at her home

Such a star I've never seen, she's as pretty as the Queen
She's as perfect as an angel from above
If she'd only be my wife, I'd live happy all my life
With that aggravating beauty Lulu Walls

If she were only mine, I'd build a house so fine
And around it so many fences tall
It would make me jealously to think that none but me
Could gaze upon that beauty Lulu Walls

Such a star I've never seen, she's as pretty as the Queen
She's as perfect as an angel from above
If she'd only be my wife, I'd live happy all my life
With that aggravating beauty Lulu Walls

One evening getting late, well, I met her at the gate
I asked her if she'd wed me in the fall
But she only turned away and nothing would she say
That aggravating beauty Lulu Walls

Such a star I've never seen, she's as pretty as the Queen
She's as perfect as an angel from above
If she'd only be my wife, I'd live happy all my life
With that aggravating beauty Lulu Walls
With that aggravating beauty Lulu Walls
