Marty Robbins - She Was Young And She Was Pretty lyrics

rate me

She was young and she was pretty<br />

She was warm and tender too<br />

She was all a man could ask for<br />

But her heart could not be true<br />

No her heart could not be true.<br />

<br />

Eyes that sparkle just like diamonds<br />

Lips as fresh as morning dew<br />

She was young and she was fickle<br />

And her heart could not be true<br />

No her heart could not be true.<br />

<br />

Cheeks just like a rose when blooming<br />

And a form so fine and rare<br />

Curls that hung below her shoulders<br />

Gold the color of her hair.<br />

<br />

Now she's gone no one can claim her<br />

In my cell I'm sad and blue<br />

One bright night I shot and killed her<br />

She was young and so untrue<br />

She was young and so untrue.<br />

<br />

One bright night I watched another<br />

Kiss her like I used to do<br />

So I drew my gun and killed her<br />

She was young and so untrue.<br />

<br />

In the morning just at daybreak<br />

When the roses kissed the dew<br />

I shall hang because I killed her<br />

She was young and so untrue<br />

She was young and so untrue...
