A poor girl dreams of having the things she wants.

Justina's Lurralime

 

Once upon a time

a long long time ago,

in the town of Lurralime

there was a little girl.

 

She wanted lots of things,

wanted them so bad

She wanted fancy rings,

and a handsome, loyal man.

 

Her name was Justina,

she was a poor little girl.

She lived with her old mama

in a cold hard world.

 

She had a dream one night

that she had the things she wanted.

All her troubles were all right,

but she found her dream was haunted

 

by the fact that she'd awaken

from her little paradise.

She only could guess when

she'd open her sad little eyes.

 

And as soon as she did

she broke into tears.

Her life is so morbid,

she didn't want to be here.

 

It's better to have loved and lost

than never loved at all

whoever said that is totally wrong

they musn't know of Justina

 

or the town of Lurralime

nobody there would speak such words

to repeat them would be a crime

in the cold hard world

that is Justina's Lurralime.
