She was young and she was pretty she was warm and tender too
|
She was all a man could ask for but her heart could not be true
|
No her heart could not be true
|
Eyes that sparkle just like diamonds lips as fresh as morning dew
|
She was young and she was fickle and her heart could not be true
|
No her heart could not be true
|
Cheeks just like a rose when blooming and a form so fine and rare
|
Curls that hung below her shoulders gold the color of her hair
|
Now she's gone no one can claim her in my cell I'm sad and blue
|
One bright night I shot and killed her she was young and so untrue
|
She was young and so untrue
|
One bright night I watched another kissed her like I used to do
|
So I drew my gun and killed her she was young and so untrue
|
In the morning just at daybreak when the roses kissed the dew
|
I shall hang because I killed her she was young and so untrue
|
She was young and so untrue
|
