Well, the first girl that I knew,
we did meet in the color blue;
that girl told me so many lies
some of them came true.
 
The second girl that me bled,
we did meet in the color red.
Her eyes were coals that smoked with dread
and on that bed I dared to tread.
 
Better hie, hie away.
Don’t even wait
for the break of day.
 
Violet is the dream state,
it’s blue and red combined.
If a violet girl I meet,
I’m bound to lose my mind.
 
So, if a violet girl you be,
best keep your eyes down on the street.
If a violet girl I meet,
her bridal gown will be a winding sheet.
 
Better hie, hie away.
Don’t even wait
for the break of day.
 
Better hie, hie away.
Don’t even wait
for the break of day.
