She came to me shortly after Christmas, |
| [00:15.31] |
Said she hated spoiling New Year's Eve. |
| [00:20.716] |
But the truth doesn't wait to come in season |
| [00:27.32] |
And what we had feared was now believed |
| [00:32.866] |
She said she'd leave come Monday morning, |
| [00:39.186] |
Catch a plane if I'd split the fair. |
| [00:45.317] |
She had friends who lived in New York City. |
| [00:51.140] |
She'd look them up and have the baby there. |
| [00:57.182] |
And now she's alone in New York City, |
| [01:03.573] |
Living like …Lord,I wonder how. |
| [01:09.299] |
An angel in hell in New York City, |
| [01:15.312] |
But I can't think about that now. |
| [01:25.110] |
Honey,will you tell him Bible stories |
| [01:30.756] |
And give him all the love I never could? |
| [01:36.718] |
And never tell him too much about his daddy |
| [01:42.997] |
'Cause there's not too much to say that's good. |
| [01:48.936] |
He'll have to learn it all from his mother: |
| [01:55.174] |
How to count and say his ABC's. |
| [02:01.156] |
But when you teach him prayers to say at bedtime, |
| [02:07.544] |
Leave off "God bless Daddy,"won't you please? |
| [02:13.330] |
And now they're alone in New York City, |
| [02:19.702] |
Living like Lord …I wonder how. |
| [02:25.141] |
Two angels in hell in New York City, |
| [02:31.598] |
But I can't think about that now. |
| [02:38.101] |
I can't think about that now. |
