Verse 1:
Oh, Father,
There’s a story of a girl.
Her name was after letters
And the past once held.
Her heart turned it’s own,
Singing it’s last time.
Refrain 1:
Hey little lady,
Love, you’re worth a rose and a smile.
Be kind.
Verse 2:
And the story so unfolds,
Little girl ‘comes old.
Within every cracked corner
Every man she’d hold.
Refrain 2:
Hey little lady,
Love you’re worth a rose and a smile.
Dream wild.
Chorus
(oooh’s)
Verse 3:
So you listen to her last will
When you saw her eyes sink cold.
Couldn’t recognize the little one
With her frozen so torn.
And her heart turned it’s own
Singing its last time.
Refrain 3:
Hey little lady,
Love you’re worth a rose and a smile.
Be kind (be kind).
Chorus
(oooh’s).
