Tom T. Hall - She Gave Her Heart To Jethro songtekst
Je score:
I guess you know jethro went crazy; we've all been crazy sometimes They fixed up his lungs and his fever; but they could not fix up his mind He married a beautiful redhead; of women they say she's a pearl She gave her heart to jethro, and her body to the whole damn world Well, jethro had someone to talk to; they were monsters and little green men He never talked to his woman; naw, he spent all his time with his friends In the evenings she'd drive off and leave him; she tossed back her long, pretty curls She gave her heart to jethro, and her body to the whole damn world Some friends came and begged her to leave him; they said, jethro belongs in a home. She said, my heart is jethro's, but my god-given body is my own. Now some of her lovers were strangers; she gave everybody a whirl She gave her heart to jethro, and her body to the whole damn world I know some will condemn me for writin' this song of a man and his wife A man's not writin' if he can't relate all the things that he sees in his life I know some will condemn me for cursin', but much can be said for this girl Who gave her heart to ol' jethro, and her body to the whole damn world
