Lyrics for Here Stands A Woman
You told me that you loved me That would never change Now I'm looking in the mirror And I know that I'm to blame 'Cause it's all gone, babe Like the song says Fallen from her curls Here stands a woman Where there once was a girl Come a long way from Danville Where they wear that Danville curl The mother and the father Who kept me in their care They're both gone like the ribbons That I used to wear But it's alright, Ma, things got tight, Pa So I went and pawned the pearls Here stands a woman Where there once was a girl I come a long way from Danville Where they wear that Danville curl You told me that you loved me And that would never change But I'm looking in the mirror Now I know I'm not the same 'Cause it's all gone, babe Like the song says I been all around this world Here stands a woman
