Bobby was a beautiful girl
|
From a small town in a great big world
|
Her daddy owned the corner store
|
Off of 7th Ave.
|
|
Danny-Jo just turned 19
|
Cigeretts rolled under his sleeve
|
Leather jacket and his faded jeans
|
And a bad attitude
|
|
But it's hard to be tough
|
When you're falling in love
|
|
(chorus)
|
He said:
|
I know I'm down on my knees
|
But I wanna be the one your only one
|
I'm beggin' you please
|
And I know that I don't have that much
|
But for whatever I don't have
|
I'll make up in love
|
|
Her daddy was a simple man
|
Raised Bobby with a real stern hand
|
Said he never could understand
|
Just what she saw in him
|
|
After workin' at the store all day
|
Bringin' in an honest day's pay
|
Man you shoulda seen his face
|
When Danny-Jo walked in
|
|
Saynin' please understand
|
With a ring in his hand
|
|
(chorus)
|
He said:
|
I know I'm down on my knees
|
But I wanna be the one her only one
|
I'm beggin' you please
|
And I know that I don't have that much
|
But for whatever we don't have
|
We'll make up in love
|
|
(Bridge)
|
Now he lookes back and smiles
|
At how they walked down the isle
|
20 years have gone bye
|
And he remembers it still
|
How she bid his will
|
With a look in her eye
|
Now he knows she was right
|
|
(chorus)
|
When she said:
|
Daddy, I'm down on my knees
|
But I wanna be the one his only one
|
I'm beggin' you please
|
And I know that we won't have that much
|
But for whatever we don't have
|
We'll make up in love
|
|
And for whatever they dan't have
|
They make up in love
|
