Carl Smith - Little Girl In My Hometown lyrics

Today my heart is burden I'm back to settle down I saw the bright lights of the city I'd have all the joys of town But there was something missing while I was roamin' round Now I know just what was missing the little girl in my hometown I'm back but I am too late cause she just married a friend She waited for me lonely years for all my roaming to end She were tired of just waiting for a love that let her down I lost my only real true love the little girl in my hometown [ steel ] It's my heart that I've broken as no one has to blame I could try now to win her but that might cause her shame So I'll travel down this lonesome road till journey's end I'll find I'll always love I can't forget the little girl in my hometown I didn't mean to forget her when I went away Ramble's all I cared to do didn't know I'd have to pay I didn't mean to be untrue to her didn't mean to let her down I lost my only real true love the little girl in my hometown
