She kept the light open, all night long For me to come home, and sing her my song Oh Debbie Denise was true to me She'd wait by the window, so patiently And I'd come on home with my hair hanging down She'd pin it up, and softly smile But I was out rolling with my band And I was out rolling with my band I never realized, she was so undone I didn't suspect she had no life of her own She was so true but she was a she She was just there I would just come Stumbling in she'd show me she'd care I didn't care cause she was just there But I was out rolling with my band And I was out rolling with my band I wouldn't come home for weeks at a time She wouldn't accept that she was free Oh Debbie Denise was true to me She'd wait by the window so bitterly Wanting me to come close, I guess I noticed I couldn't see, so what could I say That more affection could I show her I had only one thing on my mind When I come to her, she'd pin back my hair And out past the fields out the window I'd stare Where I was out rolling with my band I was out rolling with my band
