She's young and soft and kind
And she deserves a whole lot better
Than a guitar picking drifter who never gave a damn
And if loving me is all she ever wants so I'm gonna let her
And I'll try to be kind of man she thinks I am
She makes those little kitten sounds and trembles when I love her
She makes me feel so bad and strong in me
She whispers how she cannot wait to be my baby's mother
She's the only glimpse of God I've ever seen
Her mama sure had warned her never take out with a poet
For poets travel rocky roads in search of truth and life
I'm the only blemish on her virgin soul but she don't know it
And I thank the Lord she's lying gentle by my side tonight
