Short Life of Trouble - Charley Crockett

A short life of trouble

A few short days to part

A short life of trouble, little girl

For the broken heart

Remember what you promised

Not but a week before

You promised that you’d marry me, girl

Now I’m knocking at your door

A short life of trouble

A few short days to part

A short life of trouble, little girl

For the broken heart

Now you’ve broken your promise

Marry who you please

My poor heart is taken, little girl

And lying at your knees

A short life of trouble

A few short days to part

A short life of trouble, little girl

For the broken heart
