I'm Gonna Make You Mine
Sometimes I think about
The folks back home
And 12 miles of road
I used to roam
Sometimes I think about
My crazy Willie Jean
She ever get as far as New Orleans?
We used to spend the summer
On a grassy river bank
And drink hard water
From a railroad fillin' tank
Sometimes I think about
My crazy Willie Jean
Will she ever get as far as New Orleans?
Daddy told me, "Son
I see you're gonna come to harm
I'm gonna see you
On that natural county farm"
Sometimes I think about
That crazy Willie Jean
She ever get as far as New Orleans?
Sometimes I lie awake
And I cry, I think about Willie Jean
Oh, she ever get as far as New Orleans?
Please, Willie Jean, as far as New Orleans
The folks back home
And 12 miles of road
I used to roam
Sometimes I think about
My crazy Willie Jean
She ever get as far as New Orleans?
We used to spend the summer
On a grassy river bank
And drink hard water
From a railroad fillin' tank
Sometimes I think about
My crazy Willie Jean
Will she ever get as far as New Orleans?
Daddy told me, "Son
I see you're gonna come to harm
I'm gonna see you
On that natural county farm"
Sometimes I think about
That crazy Willie Jean
She ever get as far as New Orleans?
Sometimes I lie awake
And I cry, I think about Willie Jean
Oh, she ever get as far as New Orleans?
Please, Willie Jean, as far as New Orleans
