Woman Child

Woman Child

Well I was on my way back east from Dallas

When I saw a girl walking down the street

I pulled over to the side

And asked her if she wanted a ride

Just sit down and rest your tired feet

Late that night we made love together

I held he close as she say by my side

Her love was strong, her voice was mild

Both a woman and a child

I asked if she would be my bride

She such a lovely woman child so young only seventeen

She turned me on with just a smile

No one could love that woman child like me

We laughed a while then talked about our future plans

I pulled her close then I fell off to sleep

When I woke up she was gone

She'd left me there all alone

But then I saw her letter on the seat

The letter said I sure would like to be your wife

But you deserve a better girl than me

I'm gonna leave so don't be sad

I hope you don't think I'm bad

But I'm too young to start a family

She's such a lovely woman child

So young only severteen

She'll turn you on with just a smile

No one could love that woman child like me

And I wonder where that woman child could be
