country... Beyond Her Years Jill raised her kid brother in the hills of Tennessee where those mountainsides, wear towering pines like turquiose jewelry Jill walked tall n prideful but 'neath that exterior was a sad little woman who felt inferior 'cause the hills told rumors 'bout things her mama'd done that some gambling man, gone to Alabam' looked just like her son so it was more than violet that made Jill's blue eyes both her past and her future made that young girl wise beyond her years past the time she'd lived beyond her tears and strength she had to give it's a mean old world, and she was just a girl beyond her years some think life's a circle and that cruel fate is king but Jill wanted more, than being dirt poor for the boy under her wing and there were lonely miners more than willing to pay they said poor Jill's kisses had passion that was way beyond her years past the time she'd lived beyond her tears and strength she had to give it's a mean old world, and she was just a girl beyond her years Jill sent him to college and said forget those hills but like wind through the pines, a young man's mind always goes where it wills when he came back one Christmas she'd been two winters gone though she left there forever in his future she lives on beyond her years past the time she'd lived beyond her tears and strength she had to give it's a mean old world, she was just a girl beyond her years (c)2004 Robert George [This message has been edited by couchgrouch (edited 03-14-2004).]

"If one man can do it, any man can do it. It is true. But the real question is, if one man did it, are you willing to do what it takes to do it as well?" –Brian Austin Whitney
