lyrics

She was already a woman
By the time she was 17
All her dreams had fell out of her pockets
Taken by the Ghosts in the trees it seems

She took her whiskey with a little water
She took her water from the wishing well
And in her arms a baby she had carried
And in her eyes was a living hell

Oh oh oh oh I don’t think she’s gonna marry
Oh oh oh oh I don’t think he’s hauling home

He was far away across an ocean
He was setting by a foreign sun
And when they pulled his body from the river
He didn’t recognise anyone

Oh oh oh oh I don’t think she’s gonna marry
Oh oh oh oh I don’t think he’s hauling home
I don’t think he’s hauling home

She was already a woman
By the time she was 17
Then 80 years of Winters, Springs and Autumns
Lonesome wanders along that silver stream

Oh oh oh oh I don’t think she’s gonna marry
Oh oh oh oh I don’t think he’s hauling home
I don’t think he’s hauling
Oh oh oh oh I don’t think she’s gonna marry
Oh oh oh oh I don’t think he’s hauling home
I don’t think he’s hauling home
