The Girl Had Syphilis

de Harley Poe

You were young
You were bright
You were a star in the night
You were gorgeous
How it turned me on
As you danced on our lawn
In your wedding dress

And one day
Out of the blue
You said, "Baby, we're through
I don't love you"
You said, "I found someone new
Who does all of those things
You can't do"

Well, you left
With your things
In his car you went far
But I found you
I burst through the door
As you were playing his whore
Oh, how could you?

And I held up my knife
I screamed, "You stole my wife
Now you'll pay"
You cried as I slashed him
And I yelled, "shut up and hear what I say"
This is what I said

I said, "You are my wife
And I am your husband
God brought us together
But I'm fixing to take you apart
I'll pack you with sawdust
And dress you up in pretty things
Without you as my wife
I've no reason for life
But I've still got my heart
I've got my heart
I've got my heart"

I tied him to a chair
'Cause life just ain't fair
What can you do?
You broke my heart
So I'll tear him apart
And soon
I'll kill you too

Unless you repent of your sin
And come back home to your husband
Who you belong
I'm going to tear out your eyes
And your insides
As I sing my song
This is what I'll sing

I'll sing, "You are my wife
And I am your husband
God brought us together
But I'm fixing to take you apart
I'll pack you with sawdust
And dress you up in pretty things
Without you as my wife
I've no reason for life
But I've still got my heart
I've got my heart
I've got my heart"

You are my wife
And I am your husband
God brought us together
But I'm fixing to take you apart
I'll pack you with sawdust
And dress you up in pretty things

Without you as my wife
I've no reason for life
But I've still got my heart
I've got my heart
I've got my heart

I've got my heart
I've got my heart
I've got my heart
