SONG:Fourteen Carat Mind

I still recall the morning that i met you
Standing out in front of wilson's five and dime
Staring through the window at the jewelry
Hungry for the things you couldn't buy
Just like a fool i thought that i could please you
I saw you had an eye for things that shine
I paid seven saw mill dollars for a bracelet
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind.

Layin' by these railroad tracks in denver
With a hurtin' head and a half a pint of wine
Everything except my soul has been surrendered
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind.

The cabin that i built in west virginia
Was not enough to keep you satisfied
'cause a man that's got a saw mill occupation
Can't afford to feed a rich girls' appetite
I wonder if you're still with willie jackson
Sometimes i wonder if he's still alive
Ol' willie he gave up his wife and children
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind.

Layin' by these railroad tracks in denver
With a hurtin' head and a half a pint of wine
Everything except my soul has been surrendered
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind.
