I went into town on a beautiful day,
Saw a pretty girl was lookin' my way,
All those around me said son beware,
Of the little girl with the golden hair

CHORUS

Don't give your heart to a Knoxville girl,
She'll only play you for a fool,
She'll pick you up and let you down fast,
Her kind of love will never last

An evil woman with an angel face,
[. From: http://www.elyrics.net .]
Devil dressed up in ribbons and lace,
I couldn't believe what they said was true,
How a pretty little thing could make you so blue

CHORUS

I left town in the middle of night,
With a shirt on my back, and a bloody knife,
Never again need a man beware,
Of the little girl with the golden hair

CHORUS
CHORUS
