Mr. Harper Lyrics - Riley Jeannie C

Mr Harper (what do you want) I feel sorry for you (oh yeah) 

Cause I understand the reason you drink and think what you do 

Mr Harper (what) your woman is weak (oh yeah) 

You can't hold up your head and walk down Harper Valley streets 

[ dobro ] 

Mr Harper (yeah) you're the richest man around (I know it) 

It's your valley and you are the man who made it the town 

Your young bride (yeah) has been slippin' away (oh really) 

It's the reason you drink and cannot face reality today 

[ dobro ]
