|
Jesse came from Arkansas |
|
Had a house and sold it off |
|
Been a husband for too long |
|
Never been a lover, though |
|
So he headed up to Edmonton |
|
He changed his name and found some friends |
|
Got a couple shekels from a brother who supported him |
|
Didn't take a couple months |
|
Till Jesse finally met someone |
|
A simple girl from Edmonton |
|
Thought that they could be something |
|
So he brought her back to Little Rock |
|
And showed her off to everyone |
|
Found a house and found a job |
|
Got a ring to get it done |
|
Restless eyes they never sleep for too long they're always a couple steps ahead |
|
Jesse disappeared again |
|
Didn't go to Edmonton |
|
Didn't talk to any friends |
|
Like many others who are |
|
Trying to be someone else |
|
Instead of who they really are |
|
Jesse came from Arkansas |
|
Had a house and sold it off |
|
Been a husband for too long |
|
Never been a lucky one |
