mac wiseman - short life of trouble lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i knew a girl named nelly
on the coast of maryland
she taught me how to rob and steal
and cheat my fellow man

[verse 2]
remember what you promised
not more than a week ago
you promised that you’d marry me
standing in your mama’s door

[chorus]
whoa, short life of trouble
a few more words to part
short life of trouble, dear girl
for a boy with a broken heart

[verse 3]
now you’ve gone and left me
i don’t know what i’ll do
i’d give the world and half of my life
just to be married to you

[verse 4]
now you’ve broken you’re promise
go marry whom you may
in this old world so big, so deep and so wide
i’ll ramble back someday
[chorus]
whoa, short life of trouble
a few more words to part
short life of trouble, dear girl
for a boy with a broken heart

[verse 5]
i hear that train a+comin’
a+blowin’ station blow
i’d rather be dead and in my grave
than see my darling go

[verse 6]
my right foot’s on the platform
my left foot’s on the train
i’m leaving you and this lonesome old town
never to return again

[chorus]
whoa, short life of trouble
a few more words to part
short life of trouble, dear girl
for a boy with a broken heart
