Robert's appearance is something to behold |
|
Dressed in the finest of store bought clothes |
|
My mamma sews my clothes cause |
|
I'm just a poor girl |
|
But Robert is as real as his daddies gold |
|
Robert could have any girl that he wanted |
|
But his feelings for me each day seems to grow |
|
He don't know the reason, that he's so drawn to me |
|
But there is a story that |
|
Robert doesn't know |
|
Oh RobertOh |
|
RobertRobert is constantly making eyes at me |
|
He misunderstands the feelings we share |
|
There's no way that |
|
I can return his glances |
|
But I know the meaning of the feeling that's there |
|
Robert if you knew, there once was a rich boy |
|
In love with a poor girl, long time ago |
|
But the folks of that rich boy, would not let them marry |
|
And I am a symbol of the love that they stole |
|
Oh RobertOh |
|
RobertRobert, oh |
|
Robert if you only knew |
|
The same blood is flowing in both me and you |
|
That rich boy's your father, but he's also mine |
|
And my mamma's the poor girl that he left behind |
|
Oh RobertOh |
|
Robert |
