I was born in Lil' Rock, had a childhood sweetheart;

We were always hand in hand.

I was hightop shoes and shirt tails, Suzy was in pig tails;
[Bb] [C] [D]
I know I loved her even then.

You know my papa disapproved it, my mama boo-hooed it,
[Bb] [C] [D]
But I told them time and time, a-gain;

Like a sweet magnolia tree, my love blossmed tender-ly.

I had the fever with each pa-ssing year.

Oh, even if the mountain tumbles, if this whole world crumbles,
[Bb] [C] [D]
By her side, I'll still be standing there.
