Rio Grande Mud
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.
Got a girl, her name's,
finest thing you ever seen.
And I love her, she's all that I want.
And I need her, she's all that I need.
Well,, oh Francis, why
do you love me and make me cry?
How I love her, she's all that I want.
How I need her, she's all that I need.
If I ever caught her with Stevie P
I'd throw her back in the Penitentiary, now.
And if I caught her with my mother's son
I'll call her daddy and get my gun.
My Fancine just turned thirteen,
she's my angelic teenage queen.
And I love her, she's all that I want.
And I need her, she's all that I need.
And I love her, she's all that I want.
And I need her, she's all that I need.
And I love her, she's all that I want.
And I need her, she's all that I need.
