Sweet demon North Carolina

Gave your daughter to me
|
She left me on that corner starin'
|
Knocked the wind outta me
|
|
Well dime to a dollar now, and that dollar back to a dime
|
I'm wonderin' how I been wasting all that precious time
|
I just been sitting down here on that railway line
|
Thinkin' about what used to be mine
|
|
Girl, I'm just sittin' down here wonderin' why
|
Just watchin' days like hours all fly on by
|
I'm just sitting 'round here with my head in my hand,
|
Wonderin' how many years it's been
|
Singin'...

|
Well if I'd a known that things woulda ended up this way
|
I would have never left my happy home anyway
|
I would've stayed down on my bended knees and prayed
|
Hopin' I would never see this day
|
|
Girl, I'm just sittin' down here wonderin' why
|
Just watchin' days like hours all click on by
|
I'm just sitting 'round here with my head in my hand,
|
Wonderin' how many years it's been
|
Singin'
