| Let me tell you a story 'bout a girl i knew | |
| Fairest skin with eyes of blue | |
| I swear to the lord that i loved her true | |
| It's a year now she's been gone | |
| Her spirit was as bright as the soft sunshine | |
| Lips the color of strawberry wine | |
| I wish to god she still was mine | |
| The chance won't come again | |
| After first we lay in love's sweet bed | |
| With one look at her eyes i might have read | |
| All the pain that was flying through her head | |
| Through my guilt i could not see | |
| I turned to her when the morning came | |
| Hungry thoughts racing through my brain | |
| But the knife in her heart screamed herself she'd slain | |
| And a note whispered love too soon | |
| Her old man screamed and her mother cried | |
| All i could do was to wonder why | |
| A girl in her youth was forced to die | |
| Is loving such a crime? | |
| She died [few in the years] with breasts still small | |
| Seeing sixteens summers and fifteen falls | |
| Me and my blindness never realized all | |
| The fear she kept inside | |
| Let me tell you a story 'bout a girl i knew | |
| Fairest skin with eyes of blue | |
| I swear to the lord that i loved her true |
