Lyrics:

Just a mile down the road
And a street or two away
There's that freckled
Misses that I want
Most every day


And to the home of her father
Gonna drag my sore old feet
Tell him, 'shes the woman
Can wake me from my sleep'

[Chorus]
She said, 'kiss me'
Lord, I listened, but I haven't gone back since
Oh, you know I curse the mind
For building a proper fence

Yeah, I will roll
And I will suffer
Curse the soil and curse the stones
Keep my eyes a peekin'
For that girl
And the rest of her bones

I've known her for a year
Only seen her seven days
One week two many
Too keep a man like me away

[Chorus]

So three years after, I found her doorstep
I found her shoes, and found her kin
They told me, 'old grim reaper
Done come turned her in'

Pourin' liquor on the stone
That marks my lost and gone
I will whippor wail
And sing her funeral song
