Текст песни The Girl Turned Ripe - Merle Haggard , The Strangers
Well,
the
girl
turned
ripe
and
the
pickers
came
today
Had
an
uncle
who
was
farmin'
down
in
Tennessee
And
I
stopped
by
to
see
him
there
brought
this
friend
with
me
He
had
a
daughter
seventeen
whose
name
was
Clementine
And
sure
enough
they
fell
in
love
her
and
this
friend
of
mine
He
said,"The
girl
turned
ripe
and
the
pickers
came
today"
He
said,"There
ain't
no
need
in
me
beggin'
her
to
stay"
Ol'
uncle
Dave
just
shook
his
head
and
turned
away
He
said,"The
girl
turned
ripe
and
the
pickers
came
today"
Fell
in
love
with
a
gal
that
made
her
home
in
Louisian'
And
her
daddy
was
a
hard
and
strict
but
very
humble
man
And
he
shook
me
up
that
day
I
went
to
ask
him
for
her
hand
But
I
felt
better
when
I
heard
them
same
old
words
again
Well,
the
girl
turned
ripe
and
the
pickers
came
today
Said,"There
ain't
no
need
in
me
beggin'
her
to
stay"
He
just
shook
his
head
and
slowly
walked
away
He
said,"The
girl
turned
ripe
and
the
pickers
came
today"
Now
me
and
this
gal
from
Louisian'
we
got
a
family
We
got
a
little
doll
with
big
brown
eyes
that
we
call
Charmarie
And
there's
a
great
long
line
of
pickers
waitin'
to
talk
to
me
About
the
sweet
little
gal
of
mine
that
we
call
Charmarie
Well,
I
said,"The
girl
turned
ripe
and
the
pickers
came
today"
I
said,"The
girl
turned
ripe
and
the
pickers
came
today"
