She was pure as mountain rain and had never known a pain

Of what it meant to love someone that let her down

She never kissed on her first date and ten o'clock to her was late

Then she met me and I showed her the evil ways of town



She was everything I searched Lord

Just a simple country girl

But like a fool I destroyed all she's stood for

I made a woman of the world from my simply country girl

[ steel ]

Her big day was Sunday School she lived by the golden rule

But now she lives just to love some stranger most every night

A mountain flower in full bloom that learned too much too soon

I made her a woman of the world from my simply country girl

She was everything...
