Neighborhood Girl |
| It started about the time she was born |
| Her rising above the raising of corn |
| Her Midwestern dream of winning the world |
| And she was always my neighborhood girl |
| She made cheerleader and I made the team |
| I carried her books while she carried her dream |
| Of magazine covers and Hollywood world |
| And she was always my neighborhood girl |
| I went in the Navy when war came along |
| And cried every time I heard a love song |
| For as I was sailing half-way 'round the world |
| I still loved my neighborhood girl |
| I came home one Christmas on thirty days' leave |
| The things that I heard I couldn’t believe |
| She still had dreams that were out of this world |
| But she was now the neighborhood girl |
| Two wars have come and gone in between |
| And all of my sons are now in their teens |
| And I read in the paper she’s now left this world |
| And I cried one last time for my neighborhood girl |
| My neighborhood girl |
