She wears a pretty red dress
She'll laugh along with the rest
She'll dance with me and the boys
Till the last one says he's done his best
She'll bring her heavenly smile
You can hold her charms a while
But she leaves her heart at home
She loved the boy in the band
Twenty one when he took her hand
He left on a greyhound bus
With a one-way ticket to the promised land
You can see her on a saturday night
You'll want to hold her tight
But she leaves her heart at home
There's a tear in her eye and a place in her soul
Where true love used to be
There's a man in her dreams most every night
And I wish that man was me
I tried my best to make her mine
But I wound up alone
But she leaves her heart at home
SOLO
