for a first person I would suggest some of these changes?????
====================
People still come to see me
Have questions ‘bout who’s to blame
They wanna know how I knew you
And if I knew you robbed that train?

They ask if you were my husband
And I tell them that was true,
But if they'd ask forty years ago
I’d pretend I’d been a fool.

I'd say you were a stranger
And I never knew your family tree
I'd-a never believed the awful tale
How you hid your life from me

About all that I remember
The part I tell no one
Is how we spent that night together
Under the willow by the Miller's pond

When we made love till we could barely breathe
Your kisses sweeter than sin
The night you said goodbye to me
And I never knew ..the trouble you were in

{inst break}

I didn't know this was the end
Saw no worry in your eyes
Newborn grass soft under my skin
I was spellbound and hypnotized

Then before the light of morning
You saddled up and rode away
And I never saw you again
Never cried agin as I did that day

No, you never told me the posse
Was pounding on its way
To bring me in for questioning
About the man who got away

{repeat chorus?}

I was so tired and so cold
and my soul had been sold,
had been sold, but not by me

I was so worn and I felt so old
and my soul had been sold,
had been sold, but not by me

By the man who got away
The man who got away
