The leaves are falling and summer's gone
She's walking slowly, it won't be long
The greyhound most pulls out and turns down the street
There's no one come along to see her leave
She won't need those pretty clothes
Gonna be a factory girl
Just like her mama said
There'll be no fairy tales
City lights and lonely nights
And no one around to lend a hand
She kept one picture and some old letters
A faded ribbon of days gone by
She'll tie her long hair, she'll wear that white lace
Fold up her pretty clothes with tears on her face
She knows she's dreaming, she'll never see him
Kept that picture, her memories gone dim
And she'll get hard and lose her way
Gonna be a lonely girl
Just like her daddy said
There'll be no fairy tales
City lights and lonely nights
And no one around to lend a hand
She kept one picture and some old letters
A faded ribbon of days gone by
City lights and lonely nights
And no one around to lend a hand
She kept one picture and some old letters
A faded ribbon of days gone by
