Kyle O'Brien - Gastonia Girl

Don't take help if your car breaks down, and you're all alone outside of town
On Old Church Road it happened that way to a teenage girl in a Chevrolet
Out of the woods stepped a bearded man walked to her door and offered his hand
To bring some gas from a mile away, poured it in the car, and then she heard him say
Where are you headed on this cloudy night I'm sure that I must look a sight
But could you carry me down the road there's a job for me or so I'm told
The Gastonia girl knew that it wasn't quite right, but she drove that man into the night
It didn't feel right, and it didn't feel good, but they drove deep into the blue ridge woods
Oh, Gastonia Girl
Poor Gastonia Girl
Oh, Gastonia Girl
Sweet Gastonia Girl
Your honor I just don't know why but the moon was peaking through the sky
It saw me take her by the hand and drag that girl to the promised land
I took her body and twisted it so until the blood began to flow
Down the rocks and through the vines I've dreamed of it so many times
So you can lock me in this Grey Stone jail, and sentence me to live in hell
I'll sit and think about the deed I've done and count the seconds one by one
Can't say that I would do things right if I saw her again tonight
There ain't a thing in this world, makes me wild like the Gastonia girl
Oh, Gastonia Girl
Poor Gastonia Girl
Oh, Gastonia Girl
Sweet Gastonia Girl
