Текст песни
Tall, dark, and handsome he was
Well mannered and clean
Yes, he was everything that she dreamed of
All the days of her life wasted being the wife of the wrong man
Something inside her had woken
Love, forbidden but true
He was everything that she dreamed of
All the days of her life wasted being the wife of the wrong man
Adeline, Adeline is dead
Adeline, Adeline is dead
Late last night when the lovers thought they were all alone
They were surprised to find that somehow their cover had been blown
Half in a stupor her husband came a-stumbling home
And emptied his forty-five until three bodies lay prone
But it all catches up, sometimes love, well it ain't enough with the wrong man
Adeline, Adeline is dead
So the story in the paper read
Adeline, Adeline is dead
Husband put a bullet in her head
Tall, dark, and handsome he was
Well mannered and clean
Yes, he was everything that she dreamed of
All the days of her life wasted being the wife of the wrong man
Adeline, Adeline is dead
So the story in the paper read
Adeline, Adeline is dead
Husband put a bullet in her head
Adeline, Adeline is dead
Husband put a bullet in her head
Adeline, Adeline is dead
Husband put a bullet in her head
Adeline, Adeline is dead
