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 |
