I’m Gonna Make You Mine Songtext
von The Shadows of Knight

Sometimes I think about
The folks back home
And 12 miles of road
I used to roam

Sometimes I think about
My crazy Willie Jean
She ever get as far as New Orleans?

We used to spend the summer
On a grassy river bank
And drink hard water
From a railroad fillin′ tank


Sometimes I think about
My crazy Willie Jean
Will she ever get as far as New Orleans?

Daddy told me, "Son
I see you're gonna come to harm
I′m gonna see you
On that natural county farm"

Sometimes I think about
That crazy Willie Jean
She ever get as far as New Orleans?

Sometimes I lie awake
And I cry, I think about Willie Jean
Oh, she ever get as far as New Orleans?
Please, Willie Jean, as far as New Orleans
