Lucinda Williams(born January 26, 1953) is an American rock, folk, and alt-country singer-songwriter. A three-time Grammy Award winner, she was named "America's best songwriter" by TIME magazine in 2002. Williams has garnered considerable critical acclaim, but her commercial success has been moderate. She also has a reputation as a perfectionist and slow worker when it comes to recording; six years passed between the release of her second and third albums. However, she frequently makes guest appearances on other artists' albums and contributes to compilations and soundtracks.

Everything is going wrong it's not right anymore
We can't seem to get along the way we did before
Sun is hanging in the sky sinking low and so am I
Just for the love of someone and a big red sun
How I gonna lose these big red sun blues
Big red sun big red sun big red sun blues
True love to hold is worth everything
It's worth more than gold or any diamond ring
But this little diamond and a heart that's been broken
Are all I got from you, big red sun
How I gonna lose these big red sun blues
Big red sun big red sun big red sun blues
SOLO
Look out at that western sky out over the open plains
God only knows why this is all that remains
But give me one more promise and another kiss
And I guess the deal's still on you big red sun
How I gonna lose these big red sun blues
Big red sun big red sun big red sun blues
How I gonna lose these big red sun blues
Big red sun big red sun big red sun blues
