She wears a pretty red dress
She'll laugh along with the rest
She'll dnce with me and the boys
Til the last one says he's done his best
She'll bring a heavenly smile
And you can hold her charms awhile
But she leaves her heart at home
She loved a boy in a band
At twenty-one he took her hand
But he left on a Greyhound bus
With a one way ticket to the promised land
You can see her on a Saturday night
You'll want to hold her tight
But she leaves her heart at home
There's a tear in her eye and a place in her soul
Where true love used to be
There's a man in her dreams most every night
And I wish that man was me
I try my best to make her mine
But i wind up alone
Cause she leaves her heart at home
She loved a boy in a band
At twenty-one he took her hand
But he left on a Greyhound bus
With a one way ticket to the promised land
You can see her on a Saturday night
You'll want to hold her tight
But she leaves her heart at home
