Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why
I read the story about a week ago They found her on the beach that night They thought the light had gone out of her eyes And no-one thinks she'll ever be right She was so full of her life Happy with the people she knew But then no-one can tell
Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why
Guess all they found were some marks in the sand A message saying 'she is mine' Nobody touched her as she got in the car Well nobody dares to anytime She was so full of her life The girl that everybody once knew But now no-one can tell
Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why
And when they read a story out to the judge I heard they had to turn away It's all over town
I saw her face in the back of a car As they were speeding out of town She's got a mark on the side of her face That no-one's ever seen around And what she is or what she's become I guess the town will never know
Child come away It's the girl with the deputy walking by Child go and play No I won't give you reasons so don't ask why
