Rebecca Deville
Mason Jennings

And everything sat hushed and still


And while my body lay sleeping


I dreamt of rebecca deville


Now I wonder if she was a real girl


Did she die when I woke


Well i'll sleep straight through to tomorrow


And look for her till I go broke


I found myself by the highway


That i ride in all my dreams


I met her while i was hitchhiking


From england to new orleans


She rode shotgun but stayed facing me


And I laid down in the back


I fell in love somewhere near illinois


And she said she loved me right back


Anybody


Has anybody seen my little girl around


I last saw her in new orleans


I can't find her now


I stepped into the nearest twilight bar


To ask if anyone knew


The whereabouts of my rebecca deville


The bartender said that he knew


He said that just a few weeks ago


She hitched a ride out west


With a man who said he'd show her the big time


Said he would show her the best


But he stopped the car two miles down the road


And he put a gun to her head


And raped her of all that she ever had


When rebecca was found she was dead


Anybody


Has anybody seen my little girl around


I last saw her in new orleans


I can't find her now


Anybody


Has anybody seen my little girl around


I last saw her in new orleans


I can't find her now


Anybody


Has anybody seen my little girl around


I last saw her in new orleans


I can't find her now


Low doesn't even begin


To describe the shape that i am in


But you can dream in both directions


And bring the past back again


So maybe i can find her


Before heaven goes and hides her


Hope and keep her from going


Away


Well i saw her again


It was a sunday evening


She had flagged a ride


It was a lincoln continental


She was on the passenger side


She had ahold of the handle


I said rebecca don't go


He's not what he seems


I said rebecca don't go


He's not what he seems


Take my word darling


And drop out of this dream


She said


He's going to


The big city


And i'm going too


You know how that is with me


I said stop


Don't you get in the car


Don't you get in the car


'cause i won't be coming back


If you get in the back


Don't you get in the car


Don't you get in the car


'cause i won't be coming back


If you get in the back


My sweetheart


My sweetheart


I will just stay awake


Six years or maybe eight


Till I lose your memory


And all that you've meant to me


'cause i can't stand to see this


I can't stand to see this


I can't stand to see this


Well she got inside


And waved goodbye


And i watched the tail lights


They danced like candle light


And then they went out


Goodbye


My sweetheart


Goodbye


My sweetheart


Anybody


Has anybody seen my little girl around


I last saw her in new orleans


I can't find her now
