Lyrics

The house where she used to live
It ain’t there no more
Been tore down a long time
Can’t go back to what it was before
She use to come to her window
And slowly pull up the blind
Then she’d take in the midnight air
The years can’t erase this from my mind
She would play that song on her record machine
The sound would fill up the night
I would listen and watch her dance ‘til dawn
I still see her with my eyes closed tight
Well, her father was an evil man
Came home drunk and killed her in her bed
He threw her body down in the river there
Then he hung himself dead
I was too young then and it’s too late now
That’s just the way things are
But with that girl dead and gone
There’s no reason to go back to Lamar...
Mississippi
The house where she use to live
It ain’t there no more
You know they tore it down
Years ago
Can't go by the river
You know it got too deep
I was just a young boy then
Scared to go to sleep
I'm from Lamar Mississippi
My name is Floyd Lee
Can't go back to what was before
It ain't what it use to be
