Oklahoma Stray

Baby, once in Oklahoma
I took in a stray cat
I came home from work one day
And there she sat
But someone long before me
Had injured her so much
Though I fed her for a year
Never did we touch

Oh, some hearts truly
Baby, some hearts truly
Truly break

Well, I swear nobody chooses
To live a life alone
But I guess trust all drains away
In hearts cut to the bone
And God forbid I lose you
'Cause, baby, come that day
I swear I will be just another
Oklahoma Stray

Oh, some hеarts truly
Baby, some hearts truly
Truly break

Nothing is morе gentle
Nothing is more fragile
Nothing more courageous
Nothing more in danger
Than an open heart

Baby, once in Oklahoma
I took in a stray
But then one night I found her on
The roadside where she lay
And then at last I held her
And then I dug a grave
And cried for her and cried for every
Heart love could not save

Oh, love, love truly
Baby, some hearts truly
Baby, some hearts truly
Truly break
