Lyrics The Outlaws

The Outlaws

Knoxville Girl

The fog rolls in the morning

I can hardly find my way

Home to where the heart is

The words can't begin to say

Enough about the gentle way

You always take me in

Long and narrow winding road's

Got to take me home again

Go down, go down

Knoxville girl

With that dark and rovin' eye

Go down, go down

Knoxville girl

'Cause I know

You'll never be my bride

I met a little girl in Knoxville town

A town that I knew well

Feelin' good like I should

And to her love I felt

Time was long she lay there by my side

Held me close within her arms

And kept me satisfied

So on it goes and no one knows

Why heartache never ends

Above all that you will get

Exactly what it lends

Time has come to steal my love from me

In this pain I will remain

And sing this misery
