Jeannie's Afraid of the Dark - Dolly Parton[00:00:00]

Her two little feet would come running into[00:00:11]

Our bedroom almost every night[00:00:16]

Her soft little face would be wet from her tears[00:00:21]

And her little heart pounding with fright[00:00:26]

She'd hold out her arms then she'd climb in beside us[00:00:31]

In her small voice we'd hear her remark[00:00:36]

Mommie and daddy can I sleep here with you[00:00:42]

Because Jeannie's afraid of the dark[00:00:47]

One day in the summer we took some flowers[00:00:52]

To place on some old family graves[00:00:57]

Jeannie said mommy is it dark in the ground[00:01:02]

Oh Daddy I'd be so afraid[00:01:07]

Then she looked up at her daddy and me[00:01:12]

And said something that broke both our hearts[00:01:17]

She said when I die please don't bury me[00:01:22]

Because Jeannie's afraid of the dark[00:01:27]

Jeannie was always afraid of the dark[00:01:39]

And we never could understand why[00:01:42]

Because we looked after Jeannie with the very best of care[00:01:46]

Because Jeannie was our only child[00:01:51]

Perhaps it was death that she was so afraid of[00:01:57]

Because it took her one dark stormy night[00:02:02]

I think we always knew that we'd never see Jeannie grown[00:02:06]

Because it seemed she was destined to die[00:02:12]

But on Jeannie's grave we placed an eternal flame[00:02:17]

That glows and never loses its spark[00:02:22]

And on the darkest night there's always a light[00:02:26]

Because Jeannie's afraid of the dark[00:02:31]

Our Jeannie's afraid of the dark[00:02:36]
