Artist/Band: Mel Tillis
Lyrics for Song: Destroyed By Man
Lyrics for Album: Mel Tillis' Greatest Hits [Kapp] [1969]



There's a girl in a barroom

We all know her well

Her name it's the story

That some may like to tell.



She may be young and pretty

With lips red as wine

A girl whose eyes reflect the years

No makeup can't hide.



In her world walk the lonely

The rejected and condemn

It's a world that once sent her

There's no turning back again.



Like a rose that lies

Crushed and crumbled on the sand

She was created by heaven

Now destroyed by man.



Destroyed by man

And the love that she gave

Lost unless heaven

Canceled worthy the same.



Men don't respect her

Still they hold her hand

She was created by heaven

Now destroyed by man...
