Lyrics

[Chorus] A short life of trouble A few short days to part A short life of trouble, little girl For the broken heart [Verse 1] Remember what you promised Not but a week before You promised that you'd marry me, girl Now I'm knocking at your door [Chorus] A short life of trouble A few short days to part A short life of trouble, little girl For the broken heart [Verse 2] Now you've broken your promise Marry who you please My poor heart is taken, little girl And lying at your knees [Chorus] A short life of trouble A few short days to part A short life of trouble, little girl For the broken heart [Outro] A short life of trouble, little girl For the broken heart
