Kenny Rogers Poem For My Little Lady Lyrics

Poem For My Little Lady Lyrics

She's young and soft and kind

And she deserves a whole lot better

Than a guitar picking drifter

Who never gave a damn



And if loving me is all she ever wants

So I'm gonna let her

And I'll try to be the kind of man

She thinks I am



She makes those little kitten sounds

And trembles when I love her

She makes me feel so bad

And strong in me



She whispers how she can not wait

To be my baby's mother

She's the only glimpse of God

I've ever seen



Her mama should have warned her

Never take up with a poet

For poets travel rocky roads

In search of truth and life



I'm the only blemish on her virgin soul

But she don't know it

And I thank the Lord she's lying gentle

By my side tonight
