Lives a little girl named Pearly Blue
About so high and her hair is brown
The Prettiest thing boys in this town
Now anytime you want to know
Where I'm going, down the road
Get my girl on the line
You'll find me there most any old time
Now everyday and Sunday too
I go to see my Pearly Blue
Before you hear that rooster crow
You'll see me headed down the road
Now old man Flatt he owned the farm
From the hog lot to the barn
From the barn to the rail
He made his living by carrying the mail
Now every time I get the blues
I walk the soles right off my shoes
I don't know why I love her so
That gal of mine lives down the road
Now down the road just a mile or two Lives a little girl named Pearly Blue About so high and her hair is brown The Prettiest thing boys in this town Now anytime you want to know Where I'm going, down the road Get my girl on the line You'll find me there most any old time Now everyday and Sunday too I go to see my Pearly Blue Before you hear that rooster crow You'll see me headed down the road Now old man Flatt he owned the farm From the hog lot to the barn From the barn to the rail He made his living by carrying the mail Now every time I get the blues I walk the soles right off my shoes I don't know why I love her so That gal of mine lives down the road Explain Request ×
