Tom T. Hall - Pamela Brown lyrics

I'm the guy who didn't
Marry pretty Pamela Brown
Educated, well-intentioned
Good girl in our town
I wonder where I'd be today if
She had loved me too
Probably be driving kids to school

I guess I owe it all to Pamela Brown
All of my good times and
All my roamin' around
One of these days I might
Come ramblin' through your town
And I guess I owe it all to Pamela Brown

I've seen the lights of cites and
I've been inside their doors
I've sailed to foreign countries and
I've walked upon their shores
I guess the guy she married was
The best part of my luck
She dug him 'cause he drove a pick-up truck

I don't have to tell you
Just how beautiful she was
Everything it takes to get a
Country boy in love
Lord, I hope she's happy 'cause
She sure deserves to be
Especially for what she did for me
