Half As Good A Girl (Reissue Bonus Track)

(альбом: Wanda Jackson - 1958)

While walking down the street one day
I heard a girl to another one mournfully say
Mary, oh Mary, I'd be the happiest girl in town
If I was half as good a girl as my mother thinks I am

I thought of you and the wrongs I have done
I took chances and cheated and thought it was fun
I could still have your sweet love your ring on my hand
If I was half as good a girl as my mother thinks I am

Now I've been down many highways and go out every night
But my conscience still hurts me I know it's not right
Girls remember this story before you go too far
Are you half as good a girl as your mother thinks you are

I saw you today with a wonderful girl
In her arms was a baby with cute little curls
I had a cold empty feeling I could still have your love
If I was half as good a girl as my mother thought I was

Now I've been down many highways and go out every night
But my conscience still hurts me I know it's not right
Girls remember this story before you go too far
Are you half as good a girl as your mother thinks you are
