Oh, My southern Never had a to say goodbye
I met her in sixty-three, she was such a mystery She was on Barron Street, down in New Orleans So wild but yet so tame, she could calm a She was only seventeen and was her name
Oh, when I took her for a ride, she got close by my And when I looked her eye, Amelia kept me hypnotized But in my she fell, oh, I got pulled into her spell I can see her there with the flowers in her hair
Oh Amelia, my Southern I can still feel you time I close my eyes Amelia, where did you run to? We never had a to say goodbye
I remember making love underneath the above I can feel the breeze up in magnolia trees night in the Southern land, the girl, she took me by the hand And I was weak as a little lamb but I a man
Love was pumping through my veins, her lips were sweet like We rode all night in the rain 'cross the Poncetrain She had a heart as fine as fire, burning innocent I can still see her there with flowers in her
Oh, Amelia, my woman I can still feel you, every time I close my Amelia, where did you run to? We had a chance to say goodbye
Just like a star, she vanished in the night But always remember her lips so warm and tender In my heart she'll always shine so Sweet Amelia, if I could just see her one time
Oh Amelia, my Southern I can still feel you every time I close my Sweet Amelia, did you run to? We never had a chance to say
Oh Amelia, my Southern I can still feel you every time I close my Sweet Amelia, did you run to? We had a chance to say goodbye
Oh Amelia, my woman I can feel you every time I close my eyes Amelia, where did you run to? We never had a chance to say
Oh Amelia, my woman I can feel you
