Sorry Willie

See her dancing see there Willie see how reckless she lives
She's a wild one that everyone knows
What's that Willie why you're cryin' oh what have I done
Sorry Willie I didn't know you didn't know
And I wouldn't have said all those things if I'd known
That she was your darling your sweetheart your own
Please don't ask Willie how well I know her I might lie I don't know
Sorry Willie I didn't know you didn't know
[ piano - steel ]
And I wouldn't have said...
Sorry Willie I didn't know you didn't know
