The Girl Is Mine - Greg Parys

There’s a girl standing on a red mud road

Looking up at Legel’s Hill

She has never been much farther than that

But she knows someday she will

Hillbilly girl — a big big world

She is strumming on a catalog guitar

Singing songs she’s always known

She has her father’s will and her mother’s clear eyes

And a wild heart all her own

She is wondering where that red road goes

As the stars come out above

Will she make it to the lights of the city bright

Will she find someone to love

Now a woman stands on that same old road

With her father’s hand in her own

And though mother is gone still those clear eyes

Shine bright as they’ve ever shown

Yes the girl is the woman and the woman was the girl

Many an old song she still can strum

And yes she made it to the lights of the city bright

But she never forgot where she’s from

Hillbilly girl — a big big world
