I still recall the morning that I met you Standing out in front of Wilson's Five and Dime Staring through the window at the jewelry Hungry for the things you couldn't buy
Just like a fool I thought that I could please you I saw you had an eye for things that shine I paid seven saw mill dollars for a bracelet Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind
Layin' by these railroad tracks in Denver With a hurtin' head and a half a pint of wine Everything except my soul has been surrendered Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind
The cabin that I built in West Virginia Was not enough to keep you satisfied 'Cause a man that's got a saw mill occupation Can't afford to feed a rich girls' appetite
I wonder if you're still with Willie Jackson Sometimes I wonder if he's still alive Ol' Willie, he gave up his wife and children Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind
Layin' by these railroad tracks in Denver With a hurtin' head and a half a pint of wine Everything except my soul has been surrendered Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind.
