Jessie Lee had the sweetest lips, sweet cherry red, you can't resist A promise of love that'll make you want to cry She could turn your head, twist your mind, break your heart, leave you blind A fool for love watching out for a secret sign Everyone loved the princess of this town All the saints and sinners they all gathered round Time moves on and true love can't be bound It's locked to the lonesome rhythm of a mournful sound Time moves on, takes it's toll, hair of grey that once was gold Silken skin broken down by the winds of time The price is paid as the princess fades, empty bottles, her mind's ablaze The queen of bar street lost in drunken haze Jessie Lee always opened all the doors Searching for that love that promised more Flying high, she could never get enough Late night parties, getting wasted, hanging tough Jessie Lee danced with dreamers and with fools And the wild wolves who were breaking all the rules Laughing, running wild and running free Just a reckless child for all the world to see Now Jessie Lee lies alone at night, body's aching and her mind's on fire Memories fading fast of days gone by Golden days , neon nights, torchlight love, secret sights Drifting through her mind in the deep black night All day long she sits alone staring at the telephone No one calls, good time friends are gone Her story's told, it's written in her song The end is coming, she know's it won't be long Jessie Lee danced with dreamers and with fools And the wild wolves who were breaking all the rules A reckless child for all the world to see But I know she won't be coming back to me I know she won't be coming back to me
