Jeannie Is Afraid Of The Dark - Porter Wagoner/Dolly Parton

作词:Dolly Parton

作曲:Dolly Parton

Her two little feet would come running into

Our bedroom almost every night

Her soft little face would be wet from her tears

And her little heart pounding with fright

She'd hold out her arms

Then she'd climb in beside us

In her small voice

We'd hear her remark

Mommie and Daddy can

I sleep here with you

'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

One day in the summer we took some flowers

To place on some old family graves

Jeannie said

Mommy ain't it dark in the ground

Oh Daddy I'd be so afraid

Then she looked up at her daddy and me

And said somethin' that broke both our hearts

She said

When I die please don't bury me

'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

Jeannie was always afraid of the dark

And we never could understand why

'Cause we looked after

Jeannie with the very best of care

Because Jeannie was our only child

Perhaps it was death that she was so afraid of

'Cause it took her one dark stormy night

I think we always knew

That we'd never see Jeannie grown

'Cause it seemed she was destined to die

But on Jeannie's grave

We placed an eternal flame

That glows and never loses its spark

And on the darkest night

There's always a light

'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

Our Jeannie's afraid of the dark
