It's been ten long and lonely years since I've been to my hometown
|
I saw fame and fortune which I finally found
|
Everyone at home they know me and say I'm a big man
|
The hometown boy that made good well he's back home again
|
But there's a face in my mem'ry that stands out from all the rest
|
The face of someone special the girl I still love best
|
I asked about Jeannie mom said she married yesterday
|
And please don't try to see her son it had to be this way
|
Then my eyes filled with tears as I turned back the years
|
To a love I once had she was mine
|
Jeannie Norman was her name Lord I'd give up all my fame
|
Just to hold Jeannie close one more time just to hold Jeannie close one more time
|
