A Poem for My Little Lady
She's young and soft and kindAnd she deserves a whole lot betterThan a guitar pickin' drifterWho never gave a tinkers damnBut if lovin' me is what she really wantsI'm gonna let her and I'll do my bestTo try and be the man she thinks I amShe makes these little kitten soundsAnd trembles when I love herMakes me feel so big and strong and meanWhispers that she cannot waitTo be my baby's motherShe's the only glimpse of God I've ever seenHer momma should have warned herNever take up with a poet'Cause a poet travels rocky roadsIn search of truth and lightI'm the only blemish on her virgin soulShe don't even know it and IThank the Lord she's lyin' gentle By my side tonight Aus Songtexte Mania
