Seen Her Standing Lyrics

Seen her standing

Out by the platform

Waiting for the train

To go by

I asked her what time

The train will be rolling

She said twenty-five

Minutes to five

I said honey oh please

Don't leave me

There's no reason for

You to go

She said no reason

Is reason enough

I'm just going where

The cold wind blow

Going where the

Cold wind blow

Going where the

Cold wind blow

She said no reason

Is reason enough

Just going where

The cold wind blow

She made it down

To Danville

In the heat

Of the summer

And of course

I wasn't far behind

Wandering and wading

Through the unknown streets

I had one thing

I had to find

Many restless days

And nights spent searching

Until of course

I seen her there

Saddled up to some

Rough and ready cowboy

With a Danville curl

In her hair

Danville curl

In her hair

Danville curl

In her hair

Saddled up to some

Rough and ready cowpoke

With a Danville curl

In her hair

Oh god you found me

That's terrifying

Is all she had to say

Of course I took out

My old 44 and

Blew that cowpoke away

Now the judge, jury, and clerk

Are all so quick to agree

Only one place for

Me in this world

And that's the

Penitentiary

That's the

Penitentiary

And that's the

Penitentiary

Only one place

In this world left for me

And that's the

Penitentiary
