There's a lipstick kiss on a cigarette
I found last week that I can't forget
I ought to throw it away, but I haven't yet
Oh, I always loved that Shade of Red
I remember the night in Baton Rouge
It took some Johnny Walker courage to talk to you
cnd I made you blush with some things I said
Yeah, I still love that Shade of Red
cnd the fire in your eyes
These ashes still burn in my head
It was a moment in time, back when you were mine
Wish I was kissing you with roses on a feather bed
Cause I always loved that Shade of Red
We had a Carolina coast rendezvous
That candy apple day looked good on you
I watched you dance in the water in your ruby sundress
Oh, I'll always love that Shade of Red
cnd the fire in your eyes
These ashes still burn in my head
It was a moment in time, back when you were mine
Wish I was kissing you with roses on a feather bed
I'll always love that Shade of Red
There's a lipstick kiss on a cigarette
I found last week that I can't forget
