She was young and I was older she believed everything I told her
She gave her heart and soul to me and more I wanted
She left home and gave her life to me alone and I had no right to
Treat her like I treated those before but she loved it and wanted more
Sometimes I lied to make her happy
Sometimes she'd lie to see if I would lie some more

I hear now she's a mother North Carolina with her lover
And I'll bet she daily causes me and she's got reason for it
But I hope life there is better but I hope he don't let her
Have too much time to spend alone cause she's a woman without a home
