Little Girl In My Hometown Lyrics



Today my heart is burden I'm back to settle down

I saw the bright lights of the city I'd have all the joys of town

But there was something missing while I was roamin' round

Now I know just what was missing the little girl in my hometown

I'm back but I am too late cause she just married a friend

She waited for me lonely years for all my roaming to end

She were tired of just waiting for a love that let her down

I lost my only real true love the little girl in my hometown

[ steel ]

It's my heart that I've broken as no one has to blame

I could try now to win her but that might cause her shame

So I'll travel down this lonesome road till journey's end I'll find

I'll always love I can't forget the little girl in my hometown

I didn't mean to forget her when I went away

Ramble's all I cared to do didn't know I'd have to pay

I didn't mean to be untrue to her didn't mean to let her down

I lost my only real true love the little girl in my hometown
