The Outlaws (Southern Rock Band) - Knoxville Girl lyrics
[The Outlaws Southern Rock Band - Knoxville Girl lyrics]
And I can hardly find my way
Along to where the heart is
Words can't begin to say
Enough about the gentle way
You always take me in
That long and narrow one-way road's
Got to take me home again
Go down, go down knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down knoxville girl
'Cause I know you'll never be my bride
I met a little girl in Knoxville County
I'd known her well
Feelin' good like I should
And to her love I felt
Time was long she lay there by my side
Held me close within her arms
And kept me statisfied
Go down, go down knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down knoxville girl
'Cause I know you'll never be my bride
Go down, go down knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down knoxville girl
'Cause I know you'll never be my bride
So on it goes and no one knows
Why heartache never ends
Above all that you will get
Exactly what it lends
Time has come to steal my love from me
In this pain I will remain
And sing this misery go down, go down
Knoxville girl with that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down knoxville girl
'Cause I know you'll never be my bride
