The Souls - Pardon Me Lyrics

Did your mother love you, when you were very young?
And is that why you're hanging on to me?
Are you an only daughter with a family with no son?
And this is why I'm asking, pardon me

True, true, is it true, I didn't know if she loved me
And if she tried to steal a kiss, and I said no, she'll want me
Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me

Did your mother love you, when you were very young?
And is that why you're hanging on to me?
Are you an only daughter with a family with no son?
And this is why I'm asking, pardon me

She walked on home, down the road, just facin' hickory hollers
She said let's go to the house and sit down in the parlor
Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me

Did your mother love you, when you were very young?
And is that why you're hanging on to me?
Are you an only daughter with a family with no son?
And this is why I'm asking, pardon me

She sat there while she looked at me and started speaking softly
Grabbed my hand when she said, will you marry me?
Pardon me, pardon me, pardon me

Did your mother love you, when you were very young?
And is that why you're hanging on to me?
Are you an only daughter with a family with no son?
And this is why I'm asking, pardon me

Did your mother love you, when you were very young?
And is that why you're hanging on to me?
Are you an only daughter with a family with no son?
And this is why I'm asking, pardon me

Did your mother love you, when you were very young?
And is that why you're hanging on to me?
Are you an only daughter with a family with no son?
And this is why I'm asking, pardon me
