East Carolina Woman

I had an East Carolina woman, will not call her name

I had an East Carolina woman, will not call her name

Oh yes, I broke her heart, just myself to blame

You know she loved me so, she wouldn't take from nobody else

Yes, she loved me so, wouldn't take from nobody else

But I started off running, you know, not from her but from myself

I remember she cried that morning as she begged me to stay

I heard her cry that morning, she begged me to stay

But I made up my mind, would not change my ways

I run from woman to woman, I run from town to town

I run from woman to woman, Danny, whoo, I was in town after town

I learned you can't run from yourself, one day you stop and you found

I had an East Carolina woman, will not call her name

I had an East Carolina woman, will not call her name

But I broke her heart, just myself to blame

You know, you know I broke her heart, just myself to blame

I had an East Carolina woman, will not call her name
