Green on Red

Green on Red was an American rock band, formed in the Tucson,Arizona punk scene, but based for most of its career in Los Angeles, California, where it was loosely associated with the Paisley Underground. Earlier records have the wide-screen psychedelic sound of first-wave desert rock, while later releases tended more towards traditional country rock. more »

Rudy heard stories from a woman she met in Nogales
about dreams that came true like the movies she loved as a child
she worked night and day slaved for her pay sewing dresses
to buy her ticket to get her away down the mile

Chorus
I never knew what a woman could do when she's desperate
funny how we all wound up at the same motel
so I'll buy you a beer and we'll shed a tear for the lonesome
who wander this world searching tor someone to love

Rudy found trouble in a truckstop outside of Phoenix
a wizened old man with offers she knew to refuse
so he promised her things he saw in her eyes she needed
but with a child inside her now she had something to lose

Chorus
I never knew what a woman could do when she's desperate
funny how we all wound up at the same motel
so I'll buy you a beer and we'll shed a tear for the lonesome
who wander this world searching tor someone to love
