No Name #4
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
For a change she got out before he hurt her bad
Took her records and clothes
And pictures of her boy
It really made her sad
Packed it up and didn't look back
I'm okay lets just forget about it
The car was cold and it smelled like old cigarettes and pine
In her bag i saw things she drew when she was mine
Like this one here
Her alone nobody near
What a shame, let's just not talk about it
No it doesn't look like you
But you did wear cowboy boots
That's your fame
There's no question about it
Once we got back inside
With one ear to the ground
I was ready to hide
'cos I don't know who's around
And you look scared
It's our secret do not tell okay?
Let's just not talk about it
Don't tell okay?
Let's just forget all about it
