Big Ben Colson

She was young and she was pretty

A victim of a rich man's whim

When she met a wealthy gentleman Big Ben Colson

And she had a child by him.

Well, he promised her a wedding

That would give their child a name

But she waited at the altar till the sunset

But her Big Ben never came.

But she's not a bad girl

Didn't mean no wrong

She just loved the wrong man

Much too strong.

Now he sits with the dignitaries

And the wealthy ladies all love his charms

While she sits in a lonely shack in Alabama

With his baby in her arms.

But she's not a bad girl

Didn't mean no wrong

She just loved the wrong man

Much too strong...
