The Long Ryders - Child Bride Lyrics




Phil said that night he cried
'Cause on the wedding night she tied
All the things he tried to do
Seemed in vane and made him blue
Now she's gone and who knows why
Ran off with old occasion guy
Relative on mother's side
'Cause baby girl's a child bride

This way of life like no other
Cousins marry sister or a brother
Interbred and hardly fed
Not knowing at all
Now he remembers the stories repeating
In '62 a cousin wearing his ring
Says she's gone and gone for good
Ain't coming back

Yeah she left and caused a scene
Barely turned aged thirteen
Sweetest girl he's ever seen
Now she's gone to New Orleans

This way of life like no other
Cousins marry sister or a brother
Interbred and hardly fed
Not knowing at all
Now he remembers the stories repeating
In '62 a cousin wearing his ring
Says she's gone and gone for good
Ain't coming back

Phil said that night he cried
'Cause on the wedding night she tied
All the things he tried to do
Seemed in vane and made him blue
Now she's gone and who knows why
Ran off with old occasion guy
A relative on mother's side
'Cause baby girl's a child bride
