The Girl I Left Behind Me
Traditional
uitv. John Hartford
(refrein)
Oh, the girl I left, the girl I left
The girl I left behind me
If I ever I cross that bridge again
I'll pick her up behind me
break (instr.)
Last night I slept in a Sycamore tree
With the wind and rain all around me
Tonight I'll sleep in a warm feather bed
With that girl I left behind me
refrein
break (instr.)
Oh she jumped in bed, and she covered up her head
And swore I couldn't find her
But I knew damn well, that she lied like hell
So I jumped right in behind her
