Bobby Bare - (Margie's At) The Lincoln Park Inn

Big Ben Colson

She was young and she was pretty
A victim of a rich man's whim
When she met a wealthy gentleman, Big Ben Colson
And she had a child by him

Well, he promised her wedding
That would give their child a name
But she waited at the altar 'til the sunset
But her Big Ben never came

But she's not a bad girl
Didn't mean no wrong
She just loved the wrong man
Much too strong

Now he sits with the dignitaries
And the wealthy ladies, all love his charms
While she sits in a lonely shack in Alabama
With his baby in her arms

But she's not a bad girl
Didn't mean no wrong
She just loved the wrong man
Much too strong
