My Sophronie's from Kentucky, she's found another man
  Can't even kiss her, can't even hold her hand
  The moon we used to love beneath is still up in the sky
  But now I'm just a hotshot with a teardrop in my eye
  
  Love em and leave em, kiss em and grieve em
  That used to be my motto so high
  Till my Sophronie left me so lonely
  Now there's teardrops in my eyes
  
  Till Gabriel blows his bugle, I'll be loving that sweet girl
  She means more to me than the whole wide world
  I used to be a killer with the women me oh my
  But now I'm just a hot shot with a teardrop in my eye
