She slipped up on daylight
Night was her best companion I've heard it told
She slipped up on daylight
Crack in the sidewalk she up and disappeared
And sang, o' daylight, o' daylight, o' daylight, o' daylight
All the people gathered round
Said, "Gosh, we really liked that girl"
CHORUS
And a boy said he always knew
She was falling slowly going nowhere
And some boy said,
"You really should have been here, I swear
She up and disappeared, it was really too weird"
She slipped up on daylight
Caught in the morning hour she met her end, yes
She slipped up on daylight
Crack in the sidewalk she disappeared
It's for the best
O' daylight, o' daylight
O' daylight, o' daylight
CHORUS
Story is she lost her boyfriend
In some bar some months ago
Spent her nights since then
Calling and falling going nowhere
A reporter from the tabloids came
And they sang, "Gosh, we really liked that girl"
CHORUS
