Pretty Little One
Steve Martin

Saw a girl at a picture show

Walked right up and said hello

Seemed to me like a girl in need

I'm a guy who's build for speed

You and me could have some fun, you pretty little one.

Took her riding all around the town

Ain't no woman ever shut me down

Ever seen a truck like this?

How about a little kiss, you pretty little one.

Pretty little one. Pretty little one.

Took her out about a month or so

She's my gal, I told her so

She resisted for a bit

Maybe that's the way of it, you pretty little one.

Couple times she tried to leave

Told her that don't work for me

Her daddy tried to intervene

Folks are just a mean machine

I can handle double pops, what's he done but shovel rocks

I said baby that's enough

Might have got a little rough on the pretty little one.

Pretty little one. Pretty little one.

Then she called me late one night

Said it's over, let's not fight

I secured just one more talk

Maybe just a little walk

Round the block, a nice goodbye

You're so lovely honey-pie

I went over, picked her up

Got her in my pickup truck

Driving slow around the town

Then I put the pedal down

Took her down a gravel road

Parked the truck where no one knows

This is where the job gets done, you pretty little one.

Pretty little one. Pretty little one.

Blackest night that I had seen

In the darkness I felt mean

From my boot, I pulled a knife

Said I'm gonna take your life

I was calm as I could get, so I lit a cigarette

In the flicker I could see

She had a pistol trained on me, that pretty little one.

I said mister, I'm no fool

My daddy raised me country cool.

I think my papa knows enough

Guys like you who think they're tough

Read them easy as ABC

That's when he gave this gun to me

Ever since your truck arrived, my hand's been on this forty-five

I went at her with my knife,

She pulled the trigger, shot me twice

In the heart, and in the head. Took half a breath, slumped over dead.

She pumped another for good luck

Right between my buttercups, that pretty little one.

Pretty little one. Pretty little one.

In the grave, I'm dead and gone

That little gal, she wrote this song

She came over in due force, sang to me without remorse

Then she whispered to the ground...

I'll let you have another round

My name is Lucy Allenhock

You should know that I was not

Your pretty little one.
