The Little Girl in My Home Town

The Little Girl in My Home Town - Carl Smith

Written by：Carl Smith

Today my heart is burden

I'm back to settle down

I saw the bright lights of the city

I'd have all the joys of town

But there was something missing

While I was roaming round

Now I know just what was missing

The little girl in my hometown

I'm back but I am too late cause

She just married a friend

She waited for me lonely years

For all my roaming to end

She were tired of just waiting

For a love that let her down

I lost my only real true love

The little girl in my hometown

It's my heart that I've broken

As no one has to blame

I could try now to win her

But that might cause her shame

So I'll travel down this lonesome road

Till journey's end I'll find

I'll always love I can't forget

The little girl in my hometown

I didn't mean to forget her

When I went away

Ramble's all I cared to do didn't know

I'd have to pay

I didn't mean to be untrue to her

Didn't mean to let her down

I lost my only real true love

The little girl in my hometown
