Another co-write with Frank Calvagna. A nod to Townes Van Zandt. I really like the vibe.

I’m looking for Lucy
Has she been here tonight
I can’t find Lucy
And something ain’t right
I’m afraid Lucy
Is on a train tonight
If you see Lucy
Tell her I said goodbye

Chorus:
I met Lucy on a southbound train
We sang “Loretta” in the pouring rain
Lucy’s not crazy
But she might be insane
No Lucy’s not crazy
But she might be insane

We we got to Texas
The sun was shining bright
And for a week or two
Everything was just right
But Lucy was born
With the traveling bones
Today when I woke up
Lucy was long gone

The finest woman I’ve ever known
God I love those Townes Van Zandt songs

Chorus:
I met Lucy on a southbound train
We sang “Loretta” in the pouring rain
Lucy’s not crazy
But she might be insane
No Lucy’s not crazy
But she might be insane
