Oh, the girl I left, the girl I left The girl I left behind me If ever I cross that bridge again I'll pick her up behind me Last night I slept in a Sycamore tree With the wind and rain all around me Tonight I'll sleep in a warm feather bed With that girl I left behind me Oh, the girl I left, the girl I left The girl I left behind me If ever I cross that bridge again I'll pick her up behind me Oh, she jumped in bed, and she covered up her head And swore I couldn't find her But I knew damn well, that she lied, lied hell So I jumped right in behind her Oh, the girl I left, the girl I left The girl I left behind me If ever I cross that bridge again I'll pick her up behind me
