Ah Wanna Tell Ya 'bout A Girl
You Know, She Lives In Room 29
Why... Why... That's The One Right Up Top A Mine
Ah Start To Cry, Ah Start To Cry


O Ah Hear Her Walkin'
Walkin' Barefoot Cross The Floor-boards
All Thru This Lonesome Night
Ah Hear Her Crying Too.
Hot-tears Come Splashin On Down
Leaking Thru The Cracks,
Down Upon My Face, Ah Catch'em In My Mouth!
Ah Catch'em In My Mouth!
Ah Catch'em In My Mouth!
Walk'n'cry Walk'n'cry-y!!!


From Her To Eternity!
From Her To Eternity!
From Her To Eternity!


Ah Read Her Diary On Her Sheets
Scrutinizin' Every Lil Bit Of Dirt
Tore Out A Page'n'stufft It Inside My Shirt
Fled Outa The Window,
And Shinning It Down The Vine
Outa Her Night-mare, And Back Into Mine
Mine! O Mine!


From Her To Eternity!
From Her To Eternity!
From Her To Eternity!
Cry! Cry! CRY!


She's Wearing Them Bloo-stockens, Ah Bet!
And Standin' Like This With My Ear To The Ceiling
Listen, Ah Know It Must Sound Absurd
But Ah Can Hear The Most Melancholy Sound
Ah Ever Heard!
Walk'n'cry! Kneel'n'cry-y!


From Her To Eternity!
From Her To Eternity!


O Tell Me Why? O Tell Me Why?
Oh Why? Why? Why?
O Tell Me Why And Don't Tell Me A Lie!
Why The Ceiling Still Shakes? Shakes! Shakes! Shakes!
Why The Fixtures Turn To Serpents And Snakes?


This Desire To Possess Her Is A Wound
And Its Naggin At Me Like A Shrew
But, Ah Know, That To Possess Her
Is, Therefore, Not To Desire Her.


O O O Then Ya Know, That Lil Girl Would Just Have To Go!
Go! Go-o-o! From Her To Eternity!


From Her To Eternity! [Repeat]
