Last night the willows stopped weeping

Everything sat hushed and still

And while my body lay sleeping

I dreamt of Rebecca DeVille

Now I wonder if she was a real girl

Did she die when I awoke

I sleep straight through to tomorrow

And look for her till I go broke

I found myself by the highway

That I ride in on in my dreams

I met her while I was hitchhiking

From England to New Orleans

She rode shotgun but staid facing me

And I laid down in the back

I fell in love somewhere near Illinois

And she said she loved me right back

Anybody

Has anybody seen my little girlie round

I last saw her in New Orleans

I can't find her now

I stepped into the nearest twilight bar

To ask if anyone knew

The whereabouts of my Rebecca DeVille

The bartender said that he knew

He said that just a few weeks ago

She hitched a ride out west

With a man that he'd show her the big time

Said he would show he the best

He stopped the car two miles down the road

And he put a gun to her head

And raped her of all that she ever had

When Rebecca was found she was dead

Anybody

Has anybody seen my little girlie round

I last saw her in New Orleans

I can't find her now

Anybody

Has anybody seen my little girlie round

I last saw her in New Orleans

I can't find her now

Low doesn't even begin

To describe the shape that I am in

But you can dream in both directions

Bring the past back again

So maybe I can find her

Before heaven goes and hides her

Hope can keep her from going

Away

But I saw her again

It was a Sunday evening

She had flagged a ride

It was a Lincoln Continental

And she was on the passenger side

She had hold of the handle

I said Rebecca don't go

It's not what it seems

I said Rebecca don't go

It's not what it seems

Take my word darling

And drop out of this dream

She said

He's going to

Big City

And I'm going too

You know how that is with me

I said STOP

Don't you get in the car

Don't you get in the car

Cuz I won't be coming back

If you get in the back

Don't you get in the car

Don't you get in the car

Cuz I won't be coming back

If you get in the back

My sweetheart

My sweetheart

I will just stay away

Six years or baby?

Till I loose your memory

All that you've meant to me

Cuz I can't stand to see this

I can't stand to see this

I can't stand to see this

She got inside

Waved good-bye

And I watched the tail lights

Dance like candle light

And they went...

Good-bye

My sweetheart

Good-bye

My sweetheart

Anybody

Has anybody seen my little girlie round

I last saw her in New Orleans

I can't find her now
