i love that girl

Lyrics

well, she come around here, in her sixty-five dress, with her eyes stuck open, and her hair in a mess, with her head screamin', "no", and her heart sayin', "yes", and i love that girl, it was back in that house, full of drunkards and thieves, when you first saw me risin', up off of my knees, and she said, "do you think, you could show me that please?", and i love that girl, well, i love that girl, and i love that girl, well, i love that girl, well, i love that girl, we'd been left by the road, in the back of the night, we'd been stranded by dreams, and then shot full of moonlight, they took us downtown, and they read us our rights, and i love that girl, so we married and said, that we never would part, and there hasn't been, even one small change of heart, if it ended up now, i wouldn't know where to start, and i love that girl, you lose it all, then you're ascending, into a love, that's never ending, now they're boilin' the oil, on the bridge at the gates, the king's men in the castle, they're lying in wait, she says, "now is the time, we must not hesitate", and i love that girl, then she wakes me with coffee, and kisses my head, and she starts to explain, about something she's read, i say, "darlin you haven't heard, a word that i've said", and i love that girl,
