Bruce Guthro - Forbidden lyrics

Maria walked down in the river bank Left her clothes hanging in the tree She stood naked in the cool blue water She was waiting there for me I came off the back shift And I met her on the bank We laid down in the tall green gra** In the warm september rain Vincent drives a Mustang And he wears a lot of gold He doesn't long for nothing But somebody to hold So one day he took Maria And played the rich mans part And he won the poor girl with his money But he could never win her heart Forbidden love The sweetest on devine Forbidden love Is another mans wine A wise man he would let her go A foolish man would drink it slow A dead man he would never know Little towns talk So it wasn't very long Vincent finally heard just what was going on Young men don't think with reasons When his body's filled with rage So he went and bought himself a gun And a bullet with my name I came off the back shift Like a thousand times before And I met my sweet Maria On the river bank once more She talled me it was over And that I should leave town Then a shot went from the darkness And Maria went down Maybe it was fate I didn't die that night Vincent ran out from the darkness He held her and he cried He dropped the gun down at her feet I picked it up and did the deed Cleaned my prints off with my sleeve And walked away Forbidden love The sweetest on devine Forbidden love Is another mans wine A wise man he would let her go A foolish man would drink it slow And a dead man he would never know Maria walked down in the river bank Left her clothes hanging in the tree She stood naked in the cool blue water
