Don't you know I'm wondering
Little girl, I'm wondering
How can I make you love me
A little more than you loved him?
Little girl, I'm wondering
How can I make you love me
A little more than you loved him?
Jimmy was your sweetie pie
And I knew you used to love
The very ground he walked upon
One day, Jim's papa told him
And they packed up everything
They owned and left this little old town
Each tear I dried for you,
The closer our lives grew,
And you say you love me, too
Little girl, I'm wondering
How can I make you love me
A little more than you loved him?
Little girl, I'm wondering
How can I make you love me
A little more than you loved Jim?
day you see his face again
I don't want to be a loser
If you have to make a choice
Like a puppet to a string
To you, girl, I'm attached
And I know I'd be in trouble
If he came and took you back
In my mind, I can picture
And the pain I can't endure
Little girl, I'm wondering
How can I make you love me
A little more than you loved him?
Sure enough, I'm wondering
How can I make you love me
A little more than you loved Jim?
