Alexis |
| Alexis, thank you for a pleasant southern day |
| Spent on the levy throwin' pennies in the bay |
| And talkin 'bout the rich folks |
| On the big boats that pass that way |
| You were just a young girl |
| I just could not stay |
| Alexis, I can’t remember how we met back then |
| Was on my way to Atlanta, now I’m on that road again |
| Not really poor, had money just not to spend |
| You were just a young girl, and I was in need of a friend |
| Alexis, you always used to talk about |
| Leavin your hometown, headin on south |
| Maybe down to New Orleans |
| And you wanted me to help you out |
| But you were just a young girl |
| And I was just a hobo… that had my doubts |
| Alexis, I did not want to… want to leave you there |
| Sometimes this life we lead is so unfair |
| I wanted to take you with me |
| But I did not dare |
| You were just a young girl and I could not pay your fare |
| Alexis, you always used to talk about |
| Leavin your hometown, headin on south |
| Maybe down to New Orleans |
| And you wanted me to help you out |
| But you were just a young girl |
| And I was just a hobo… that had my doubts |
| I had my doubts |
