Porter Wagoner - Julie lyrics

When I married Julie she was just seventeen pretty as the answer to any man's dream

From the start I gave Julie all the love that I had

But everyone told me that Julie was bad

For Julie liked parties and clothes that fit tight

Drinking and dancing and out late at night

She was everything evil with the face of a child

And I sat home and waited while my Julie went wild

I built an empire with my own two hands power and money to break any man

But with all my possessions power and gold Julie was one thing I couldn't control

Though I gave Julie all my money could buy

And begged her to love me but she wouldn't try

For she'd only laugh as she'd walk out the door

And each time she'd hurt me made me love her more

I couldn't sleep until Julie got home last night she came in but wasn't alone

The things that I heard I could hardly believe

As her and the stranger made plans to leave

Without my Julie why I just couldn't live

And this is one thing I know I could never forgive

So I wait with a pistol the bullets just three one for the stranger Julie and me

One for the stranger Julie and me
