On The Long Track

Why don't you write me in a letter
Help me to feel better
Tell me to forget her
I'm on the long track
I'm never coming back
She was young but not seventeen
The boys know what I mean
I should have known that she would leave
She's on the long track
She ain't coming back
She's on that high road
Oh lord don't you know
I love her so
Well I love her so

It was love and not make believe
The girls know what I mean
She's the best I've ever seen
She's on the long track
She ain't coming back
She's on that high road
Oh lord don't you know
I love her so
Well I love her so
