Keith Anderson - Adaliene Lyrics

First naked lady I ever saw
Was that tattoo on my uncle's arm
Daddy's farm that summer
He drove up and helped us build that barn
He rolled up his sleeves
His arms were lean
He flexed and made her dance for me
And I turned red
And we both laughed
And hoped my daddy didn't see
It got all tear eyed and serious
When I asked him who she was

That's Adeliene
Sixty three
Well I wish you could have met me
She was everything to me
Hear it all the time
Love at first sight
When I saw that girl
I knew I'd have to love her all my life

I was just nineteen
When I got this thing
And I swear that it stills stings
Every time I think about my Adeliene

Get back to work, you lazy bums
My daddy joked
"He's lying son, whatever he said he did
you can best believe he's never done"
Mom yelled "Hey guys it's supper time. Wipe off
your feet and wash your hands."
And as we did I said "Hey dad
"have you ever seen that tattoo dance?"

It got all tear eyed and serious
Shook his head and said
"Yeah I remember her"

That's Adeliene
Sixty three
First time I ever saw your uncle take a drink
Hear it all the time
Love at first sight
When I saw her in his arms
I knew he'd love her all his life

I was twenty four in your grandpa's Ford
And I paid for all that ink
Yeah I know all about that Adeliene
I knew her well
Hell, all he ever talks about
From the moment that he fell
Were those wedding bells
That house on the hill
And how empty and how lonely
Life would be without
His Adeliene

Hear it all the time
Love at first sight
When I saw that girl
I knew I'd have to love her all my life

I was just nineteen
When I got this thing
And I swear that it stills stings
Every time I think about my Adeliene
Oh my Adeliene

First naked lady I ever saw
Was that tattoo on my uncle's arm
