She Gave Her Heart to Jethro - Bobby Bare

You know old Jethro he went crazy

Course we’ve all been crazy some time

They fixed up his lungs and his fever

But they couldn’t fix up his mind

He had married a beautiful redhead

Of women they say she’s a pearl

She gave her heart to Jethro

And her body to the whole damn world

Now Jethro he had someone he could talk to

There were monsters and little green men

He never talked much to his woman

He just spent all his time with his friends

In the evenings she’d drive off and leave him

She’d toss back her long pretty curls

She gave her heart to Jethro

And her body to the whole damn world

Her friends all begged her to leave him

They said Jethro he belongs in a home

She said my heart is Jethro’s

But my God given body, that’s my own

Now some of her lovers were strangers

She gave everybody a whirl

She gave her heart to Jethro

And her body to the whole damn world

She gave her heart to old Jethro

And her body to the whole damn world
