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