I still recall the morning that I met you
Standing out in front of Wilsons five and dime
Staring through the window at the jewelry
Hungry for the things you couldnt buy
Just like a fool I thought that I could please you
I saw you had an eye for things that shine
I paid seven sawmill dollars for a bracelet
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind
Layin by these railroad tracks in Denver
With a hurtin head and a half a pint of wine
Everything except my soul has been surrendered
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind
The cabin that I built in West Virginia
Was not enough to keep you satisfied
Cause a man thats got a sawmill occupation
Cant afford to feed a rich girls appetite
I wonder if youre still with Willie Jackson
Sometimes I wonder if hes still alive
Ol Willie, he gave up his wife and children
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind
Layin by these railroad tracks in Denver
With a hurtin head and a half a pint of wine
Everything except my soul has been surrendered
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind
