"Jesse" lyrics - CHARLES WESLEY GODWIN

I was walking down the road 'bout a week ago
Underneath the bridge where long trucks roll
The bright red letters caught my eyes
Reading "Jesse do you miss me like I miss you tonight?"

[Pre-Chorus:]
Well Jesse don't hear you and neither do I

[Chorus:]
When you're cryin' at the heavens with wool-covered eyes
You made that bed now you can sleep tight
Well Jesse don't hear you and neither do I

You walk this earth full of regret
You couldda killed that curse if you just confess
Swore you'd love Jesse until you's dead
But only so much that you wrote it in red

[Pre-Chorus:]
Well Jesse don't hear you and neither do I

[Chorus:]
When you're cryin' at the heavens with wool-covered eyes
You made that bed now you can sleep tight
Well Jesse don't hear you and neither do I

[Bridge:]
If you could go back you make your stand
But now Jesse's got a girl with a ring on her hand

[Pre-Chorus:]
Well Jesse don't hear you and neither do I

[Chorus:]
When you're cryin' at the heavens with wool-covered eyes
You made that bed now you can sleep tight
Well Jesse don't hear you and neither do I

[Chorus:]
Well Jesse don't hear you and neither do I
When you're cryin' at the heavens with wool-covered eyes
You made that bed now you can sleep tight
Oh Jesse don't hear you and neither do I

[Outro:]
I was walking down the road 'bout a week ago
Underneath the bridge where long trucks roll
