Emmaline

Lyrics

Emmaline Emmaline, Emmline. She took my heart and left me here to bleed She was the finest lookin' woman this poor boy had ever seen Bring back my heart and heal me Emmeline I met her in a honky-tonk across the Georgia line She said she was lonely, would I like to spend some time We shared a tender moment, lasted till the break of dawn I turned around next mornin' and that woman, she was gone Emmaline, Emmaline. She took my heart and left me here to bleed I fell in love first kiss and now I'm begggin' on my knees Bring back my heart and heal me Emmaline All my friends say that I'm crazy, comin' back here every night. 9:30 rolls around and I'll be sittin', getting' tight That broken heart should heal, they say, in just a drink or three Aw, y'know that it ain't broken, 'cause she took the whole darned thing Emmaline, Emmline. She took my heart and left me here to bleed She was the finest lookin' woman this poor boy had ever seen Bring back my heart and heal me Emmaline Emmaline, Emmline. She took my heart and left me here to bleed She walked in at 9:30, it was gone by 10:15 Bring back my heart and heal me Emmaline I fell in love first kiss and now I'm beggin' on my knees Bring back my heart and heal me Emmaline Bring back my heart and heal me Emmaline
