[00:06.58] |
At sixteen she quit high school |
[00:09.39] |
To make a fortune in the promised land |
[00:12.21] |
She got a job behind the counter |
[00:15.02] |
In an all-night hamburger stand |
[00:18.14] |
She rode faithfully home to mama |
[00:21.15] |
Now, mama dont you worry none |
[00:24.08] |
From small things, mama, big things one day come |
[00:30.27] |
It was late one friday |
[00:33.02] |
He pulled in out of the dark |
[00:35.77] |
He was tall and handsome |
[00:39.03] |
First she took his order, then she took his heart |
[00:41.83] |
They bought a house up on the hillside |
[00:44.84] |
Where little feet soon would run |
[00:47.65] |
From small things, mama, big things one day come |
[00:53.40] |
Oh, but love is bleeding |
[00:56.71] |
Its sad but its true |
[00:59.33] |
When your heart is beating |
[01:02.64] |
You dont want to hear the news |
[01:05.58] |
She packed her bags |
[01:08.15] |
And with a wyoming county interstate map |
[01:11.15] |
She drove down to tampa |
[01:14.34] |
In an eldorado grand |
[01:17.21] |
She wrote back, dear mama |
[01:19.83] |
Life is just heaven in the sun |
[01:22.71] |
From small things, mama, big things one day come |
[01:28.46] |
Well, she shot him dead on a sunny florida road |
[01:58.76] |
When they caught her all she said |
[02:01.33] |
Was she couldnt stand the way he drove |
[02:04.70] |
Back home lonesome johnny waits for his babys parole |
[02:10.39] |
He waits high on the hillside |
[02:13.58] |
Where the wyoming rivers roll |
[02:16.52] |
And his seed have almost grown now |
[02:19.32] |
To a daughter and a handsome son |
[02:22.45] |
From small things, mama, big things one day come |
[02:28.08] |
From small things, mama, big things one day come |
