I remember the time she used to be mine But just a little bit later on down the line she said bye bye try not to cry See you just a little bit later on down the line See when I was born she was goin' on ten And on the day that I was to make her mine She said it's not right so I'm leaving tonight See you just a little bit later on down the line She said babe it ain't that I don't love you It's just that road is long and there's a lot you've got to see But today I heard it said she got herself wed They say he looked her age and she looked fine My one love is gone why was I born just a little bit later on down the line Just a little bit later on down the line
