lirik lagu merle haggard – the girl turned ripe
[intro]
well the girl turned ripe and the pickers came today
[verse 1]
had an uncle who was farming down in tennessee
and i stopped by to see him there brought this friend with me
he had a daughter seventeen whose name was clementine
and sure enough they fell in love her and this friend of mine
[chorus]
he said the girl turned ripe and the pickers came today
he said there ain’t no need in me begging her to stay
ol’ uncle dave just shook his head and turned away
he said the girl turned ripe and the pickers came today
[verse 2]
fell in love with a girl that made her home in louisiana
and her daddy was a hard and strict but very humble man
and he shook me up that day i went to ask him for her hand
but i felt better when i heard them same old words again
[chorus]
well the girl turned ripe and the pickers came today
said there ain’t no need in me begging her to stay
he just shook his head and slowly walked away
he said the girl turned ripe and the pickers came today
[verse 3]
now me and this girl from louisiana we got a family
we got a little doll with big brown eyes that we call charmarie
and there’s a great long line of pickers waiting to talk to me
about the sweet little girl of mine that we call charmarie
[chorus]
well the girl turned ripe and the pickers came today
said there ain’t no need in me begging her to stay
he just shook his head and slowly walked away
he said the girl turned ripe and the pickers came today
[outro]
i said the girl turned ripe and the pickers came today
