Now She`s Gone — текст песни (Steve Earle)

She was her daddy`s little darlin`
Her mama`s only child
They didn`t understand at all when
She took to running wild

She left town one day and never said goodbye
Left a hole in daddy`s lap and a tear in mama`s eye
Where`d we go wrong and now she`s gone
She met a boy up in Kentucky
Charlie was his name
Just when he thought he got lucky
She stole his watch and chain

She always kept on movin` and she never wasted time
And they said she left quite a string of broken hearts behind
Woke up alone and now she`s gone

Me, I wasn`t even trying
You could say I was content
She went through my life like lightning
Blew out the other end

I still taste her kisses, smell her perfume in the wind
And if I could you know that I would do it all again
She done me wrong, and now she`s gone
