The Oxford Girl

作詞:Jones John Longley, Telfer Ian

I met a man whose brother said
He knew a man who knew the Oxford girl

Is it true what you hear, did he do it out of fear?
Was the day drawing near when a child would start to show?
Was it rage or shame or the damage to his name?
Was it something worse, does anyone know?

Did she pay a price for making them look twice?
Like a glimpse of paradise across a dull and bitter land
Did she pass them by, did she dare to meet their eye?
Did she scorn them all and did they understand?

A grief to her father, did she really leave him?
A lover to her brother, yes, we all believe him
Temptation to her betters, no better then she should be
Unfaithful to her lover, he always knew she would be

She says, 'I never had a chance to prove them wrong
My time was short, the story long
No, I never had a chance to prove them wrong
It's always them that write the song'

Did he go to ground? Was the suitcase ever found?
Did the police come swarming round on a trail, already cold?

Did he lead them on a dance? Did he run away to France?
Or did he shop himself before the day was old?

O, she was bound to lose if she set her face to choose
They never could excuse her for stirring up their fears
She was much to young, the earth has stopped her tongue
You can hear the voices calling down the years

She says, 'I never had a chance to prove them wrong
My time was short, the story long
No, I never had a chance to prove them wrong
It's always them that write the song'

I met a man whose brother said
He knew a man who knew the Oxford girl
It's always them that write the song

I met a man whose brother said
He knew a man who knew the Oxford girl
It's always them that write the song

I met a man whose brother said
He knew a man who knew the Oxford girl
It's always them that write the song
