North Carolina

Sweet demon North Carolina
 Gave your daughter to me
 She left me on that corner starin'
 Knocked the wind outta me
 Well dime to a dollar now, and that dollar back to a dime
 I'm wonderin' how I been wasting all that precious time
 I just been sitting down here on that railway line
 Thinkin' about what used to be mine
 Girl, I'm just sittin' down here wonderin' why
 Just watchin' days like hours all fly on by
 I'm just sitting 'round here with my head in my hand,
 Wonderin' how many years it's been
 Singin'...
 Sweet demon North Carolina
 Gave your daughter to me
 She left me on that corner starin'
 Knocked the wind outta me
 Well if I'd a known that things woulda ended up this way
 I would have never left my happy home anyway
 I would've stayed down on my bended knees and prayed
 Hopin' I would never see this day
 Girl, I'm just sittin' down here wonderin' why
 Just watchin' days like hours all click on by
 I'm just sitting 'round here with my head in my hand,
 Wonderin' how many years it's been
 Singin'
 Sweet demon North Carolina
 Gave your daughter to me
 She left me on that corner starin'
 Knocked the wind outta me
