The Girl I Left Behind
Out and over the clear blue yonder
Where the river meets the canyon far and wide
I sat and gazed and set myself to ponder
Why I left that darling girl behind
And I ride the road I'm bound
And I see what she's done to me
And I bide my wasted time
On the girl I left behind
These nights they seem to last forever
And the days they drag on in my mind
But these feelings they always make me wonder
Why I left that darling girl behind
And I ride the road I'm bound
And I see what she's done to me
And I bide my wasted time
On the girl I left behind
Well my life, it leaves me here so lonely
Slowly drifting as I walk on down the line
It seems I'm out here without knowing
Why I left that darling girl behind
And I ride the road I'm bound
And I see what she's done to me
And I bide my wasted time
On the girl I left behind
