She Said That - Lesley Gore

She chased the children every day

She said they made her sad

She told me that she never wed

Because her luck was bad

But she said that

And not me

She said that

And not me

She chose a front apartment

Her window faced the street

She’d sit and wave the day goodbye

Her hair was always neat

But she was that

And not me

And not me

I never sat alone

And not me

I never cry

And not me

I never let life go

And not me

And not me

Inside

She was a pretty lady once

She saved her self for one

But after time had been and gone

She gave herself to none

But that was she

And not me

That was she

Not me

They say that she was pretty once

They found her in her bed

The neighbors say she took her life

A blessing they all said

But that was she

She’s dead

Not me
