David Massengill - The Girl from Nebraska lyrics
The girl from Nebraska The girl that my father married From the first time he saw her So pretty it made him weak kneed At the GI Canteen They danced to a tune by Fats Waller They Danced once, they danced twice They danced till he spent his last dollar He was stationed in Lincoln A part of the Army Air Corps He joined like his friends did They all did their part for the war When peace came They parted Though she thought he would ask her to marry She stayed in Nebraska He went home to east Tennessee So she wrote him a letter Tossing it off casually How she's coming to Roanoke On a school trip and by the way John James asked her to marry She hadn't said yes She hadn't said know Last chance if he had something to say And she sent a train schedule Underlining the time and the day The girl from Nebraska Looked out the window of the train As it entered the station She saw him there calling her name And he held in his one hand A bouquet of beautiful flowers And he held in his other hand As she ran to greet him A diamond ring |
