Jeannie's Afraid Of The Dark(LIVE) - Dolly Parton[00:00:00]
Her two little feet would come running into [00:00:33]
Our bedroom almost every night [00:00:37]
Her soft little face would be wet from her tears [00:00:42]
And her little heart pounding with fright [00:00:46]
She'd hold out her arms then she'd climb in beside us [00:00:51]
In her small voice we'd hear her remark [00:00:55]
"Mommie and Daddy can I sleep here with you [00:01:00]
'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark" [00:01:04]
One day in the summer we took some flowers [00:01:09]
To place on some old family graves [00:01:13]
Jeannie said "Mommy ain't it dark in the ground [00:01:18]
Oh Daddy I'd be so afraid" [00:01:22]
Then she looked up at her daddy and me [00:01:27]
And said somethin' that broke both our hearts [00:01:31]
She said "if I die please don't bury me [00:01:36]
'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark" [00:01:40]
Jeannie was always afraid of the dark [00:01:49]
And we never could understand why [00:01:53]
'Cause we looked after Jeannie with the very best of care [00:01:57]
Because Jeannie was our only child [00:02:01]
Perhaps it was death that she was so afraid of [00:02:06]
'Cause it took her one dark stormy night [00:02:10]
I think we always knew that we'd never see Jeannie grown [00:02:15]
'Cause it seemed she was destined to die [00:02:20]
But on Jeannie's grave we placed an eternal flame [00:02:24]
That glows and never loses its spark [00:02:29]
And on the darkest night there's always a light [00:02:33]
'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark [00:02:38]
Our Jeannie's afraid of the dark[00:02:43]
