Lyrics
I drifted into arkansas in the middle of september I hadn't planned to stay for long just to visit an old friend that I remembered Quite surprised he asked if I could stay till late october And help him with his crops till harvest time was over He offered me a clean white bed said that I was welcome at his table But I told him that I'd eat outside bed down in the barn above the stables I told him that I didn't want to be no trouble to his lovely wife But he didn't know she was the reason that I'd come cause I loved her more than life Oh melinda I just had to see you one more time melinda I won't cause you any trouble with my stay Oh melinda I just had to see you one more time melinda One more time melinda then I'll go away
Melinda it's so good to see you happy I had always hoped you would be I know you couldn't help it that you loved him more than you love me I know he's a good man and he's always been a friend of mine And I think the world of both of you and I just had to see you one more time Oh melinda.. One more time melinda then I'll go away
