White Girl (Mono Version) - Johnny Cash[00:00:00]
Written by:P. La Farge[00:00:01]
I am stunned I am broken and my head is in my hand[00:00:07]
For she who said she love me will not wed an Indian man[00:00:13]
My Gods who were wild ridden stand quiet by my side[00:00:19]
For although I loved her she would not be my bride[00:00:25]
Oh goodbye softly sweet one it was splended while it ran[00:00:30]
Goodbye my bitter white girl I'll forget you if I can[00:00:36]
She came up to the pueblo with her bright blonde hair[00:00:43]
They told me not to love her but I did not care[00:00:48]
She took me to her parties she carried me around[00:00:54]
And I was a proud one the tallest man in the town[00:01:00]
For I found great wonder all wrapped in brilliant dreams[00:01:06]
I held her strong with gentle as kings have held their queens[00:01:11]
I learned to drink strong whiskey as she took me here and there[00:01:17]
Until life without my whiskey I could not bear[00:01:22]
Oh goodbye softly sweet one[00:01:28]
It was splended while it ran[00:01:31]
Goodbye my bitter white girl I'll forget you if I can[00:01:33]
Well when she came to leave me she took me by the arm[00:01:49]
And she said she loved me and would not do me harm[00:01:55]
But she would not marry not an Indian she said[00:02:00]
She thanked me for my offer and I wished that I was dead[00:02:06]
Now I'm back among my people and they are kind to me[00:02:11]
Although I'm sad with staggers when I drink that tough whiskey[00:02:17]
For I've been a white girl's pet a captive Indian[00:02:23]
Shown off and discarded just a drunk who might have been[00:02:29]
Oh goodbye softly sweet one[00:02:34]
It was splended while it ran[00:02:37]
Goodbye my bitter white girl I'll forget you if I can[00:02:39]
Goodbye my softly sweet one[00:02:45]
It was splended while it ran[00:02:48]
Goodbye my bitter white girl I'll forget you if I can[00:02:51]
