Oh, My southern Never had a to say goodbye
I met her back in sixty-three, she was such a She was there on Street, down in New Orleans So wild but yet so tame, she could calm a She was only seventeen and Amelia was her
Oh, when I took her for a ride, she got close by my And I looked into her eye, Amelia kept me hypnotized But in my heart she fell, oh, I got pulled into her I can still see her there with the in her hair
Oh Amelia, my Southern I can still feel you every time I my eyes Sweet Amelia, did you run to? We never had a to say goodbye
I remember making love underneath the stars I can feel the summer up in magnolia trees That night in the Southern land, the girl, she me by the hand And I was as a little lamb but I became a man
was pumping through my veins, her lips were sweet like sugarcane We rode all night in the rain the Lake Poncetrain She had a heart as fine as fire, burning innocent I can still see her there with flowers in her
Oh, Amelia, my Southern I can still feel you, time I close my eyes Sweet Amelia, did you run to? We never had a chance to say
Just like a shooting star, she in the night But always remember her lips so warm and tender In my heart she'll always so bright Sweet Amelia, if I could just see her one more
Oh Amelia, my Southern I can still you every time I close my eyes Amelia, where did you run to? We had a chance to say goodbye
Oh Amelia, my Southern I can still you every time I close my eyes Amelia, where did you run to? We never had a to say goodbye
Oh Amelia, my woman I can still feel you every time I close my Sweet Amelia, did you run to? We never had a to say goodbye
Oh Amelia, my Southern I can still you
