Lyrics
Long Brown Hair
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.
She had long brown hair
All down her breast
Made me think about my future
Made me think about my past
She was so pretty,
as pretty as can be
And I thought, "My God,
why shouldn't it be me?
Oh, God, why shouldn't it be me?"
Her skin was tight
Her manner was free
She gave me that look
that seemed to say
"Hey you, look at me"
Her smile was crooked and good
as she sucked her capri
And I thought, "My God,
why shouldn't it be me?
Oh, come on, come on, come on, God,
Why shouldn't it be me?"
Her body was free
Wanna bet so was her love
Don't tell me what's proper
Anyone can see
I wasn't even her first,
so don't blame it on me
She was so pretty,
as pretty as can be
And i thought, "My god,
why shouldn't it be me?
Oh, come on, this once, once, once, Lord,
why shouldn't it be me?"
Her body was free
Wanna bet so was her love
You all read the Bible, right?
You know what the Bible says?
I'll tell you what it says
Don't put a stumbling block
in front of someone who can't see
Don't put a beautiful body
In front of someone who's hungry
She was so pretty,
as pretty as can be
And i thought, "My God,
why shouldn't it be me?
Oh, come on, come on, come on, Lord,
why shouldn't it be me?"
Her body was free
Wanna bet so was her love
