Lyrics:
On the day that she was buried Her Daddy stood out by the cemetery fence Prayed to God for forgiveness For surely all of this is punishment for my sins They put her in the family garden Said you could hear his heart breaking miles away All the men pitched in and bought a marble angel To mark the piece of land where little Bonnie lay My Grandma said she would keep her in the mornings So her Mama could sleep a bit and do the chores and such She'd read her stories about little girls and magic powers That would never let a pretty angel hurt Her Mama's always been a beauty She's still beautiful to this very day But they say Bonnie's crystal eyes put the stars to shame Maybe heaven needed Bonnie's face My Grandma said she would keep her in the mornings A swollen angel who never would complain She'd read her stories about little girls and princesses Whose Daddy's don't feel punished for what heaven takes away Little Bonnie never married Little Bonnie never even made it four But I grew up in her presence Even though she was gone before I'z born Even though she was gone before I'z born
