Graveblankets - Knoxville Girl lyrics

I met her at a walmart She was tryin' to find a spare part And i thought i could help find it She said she just moved into town With a smile that turned into a frown And she grabbed my hand and held on too tight Knoxville girl She said she was a kentucky girl Who wanted to see more of the world And there was desperation in her eyes I asked if i could drive her home Cause her car broke down she was all alone But she said she didn't have a place to stay Knoxville girl She moved in with me And we were both so happy Until the day i happened upon the news That told of the knoxville murder armed robbery She needed me for cover So she acted like my lover But i knew she'd soon be through with me I confronted her with the facts The smile on her face, well it fell like an axe And that's when the bullets began to fly Knoxville girl
