Last December I met a girl
|
She took a likin' to me
|
Said she loved me
|
But she didn't know the meaning of the word
|
|
She imagined love to be grand
|
Me holdin' her hand and
|
Whisperin' sweet things and
|
Cooin' softly like a song bird
|
|
Then one mornin' she came to me
|
With a tear in her eye and a
|
Sigh on her breath Lord she said
|
"Hon I'm heavy with child"
|
|
I said "god damn girl can't you see
|
That I'm breakin'my back
|
Just tryin' to keep my head above water
|
And it's turnin' me wild"
|
|
Cinderella can't you see
|
Don't want your company
|
You better leave this mornin' leave today
|
Take your love and your child away
|
|
Rockin' chair on the front porch
|
I'm thinkin' about all the things that I did
|
As a young man
|
Now that I'm old
|
|
I remember her and the boy
|
Did he have all the toys and the joys
|
That a young man should have
|
Before he gets too old
|
|
Cinderella couldn't you see
|
Didn't want your company
|
Shoulda left that mornin' left that day
|
Took your love and your child away
|
