Nature Girl Lyrics

Here is a little song that I like to sing

It's about a girl who I think about still

She lives in a little shack among the trees

I was in love with her, but she didn't love me

I bought her presents, I bought her things

An expensive dress and a diamond ring

But the girl liked to live all by herself

With a fly and a spider as her pets

A wise man said love makes you blind

Nobody liked her but for me she was divine

A queen of the forest, a nature girl

A goddess of green, it was always her

I heard she was a widow, her husband died

He was chopping some wood when a tree fell down

And he broke his neck, yes he broke his spine

So I thought I stood a chance to make her mine

And so I bravely asked her to marry me

I offered her happiness in the city

But she was a hard girl, like a bow you can't bend

A door you can't unlock, she just wouldn't relent

She told me that I was too busy

With the things that I owned, it imprisoned me

That she was my love, I couldn't make her see

So I thought it would be best for me to flee

This was the story about the nature girl

If you walk in that forest you might meet her

She's a witch, she's a nymph, but at least she's real

If you mess with her mind you will get a raw deal

She'll see right through you, like she did with me

What you are and what you're gonna be

Take a look in her eyes and you know what I mean

There's more to this picture than what you see
