Just a pretty little girl in an Indian gown
Following the river 'til it gets to town
Going to meet her daddy at the railroad line
Come from Mississippi to his dying wife
So further down the road
Following the hard dust and snow
Her daddy would go
Was bored in Indiana until he moved out west
Working for the Mississippi government
Was going to be a sheriff but he wouldn't use a gun
Didn't want to die on his daughter and his son
So further down the road
Following the hard dirt and the snow
Her daddy would go
Just a pretty little girl in an Indian gown

Her daddy would go
Just a pretty little girl in an Indian gown
Just a pretty little girl in an Indian gown
Yeah, just a pretty little girl in an Indian gown
She's just a pretty little girl in an Indian gown
Just a pretty little girl in an Indian gown
Just a pretty little girl in an Indian gown
