Tell-Tale Heart by Ken McGoogan published on 2021-11-18T02:44:41Z TELL-TALE HEART I fell in love with a young Peggy Sue Though she went around with a Buddy I knew The worst of it was I had a tell-tale heart Whenever I saw her, the drumming would start I did not know what I would do If she smiled at me and said, I hear it too My life became a sad merry-go-round The beating of my heart was the only sound around You’ve heard Buddy’s stories but don’t be deceived What really happened? What can you believe? Buddy proposed and Peggy said yes We went to the wedding, she wore a white dress She marched down the aisle, my heart it went mad I shuffled my feet and I felt like a cad Peggy Sue whispered, oh what’ll we do? The beating of your heart, yes, I hear it too Peg and I fled and we did not look back We married, had kids, and we lived in a shack Then we won eight million, we live only in art We dance every night to my tell-tale heart Genre Folk & Singer-Songwriter
