Such a timeless song! It could be 50 years old. I love the harmonies. I love her sweet, clear, simple voice and I even love the twangy music! One of my favorite songs. Unself-consciously simple and tuneful.
Well I should have known I'd never see you again You broke a heart that just won't mend You came to me in time of need You left a flower but you stole the seed I can see you now with someone new That deceiving smile and your eyes so blue You're just another hungry mouth to feed You left a flower but you stole the seed I hung your picture upon my wall You built me up just to make me fall I should have known the ways of greed You left a flower but you stole the seed Well I'm sad for you and your evil ways Your heart is cold as a winter day You're always searching for a soul to bleed You left a flower but you stole the seed I hung your picture upon my wall You built me up just to make me fall I should have known the ways of greed You left a flower but you stole the seed I should have known the ways of greed You left a flower but you stole the seed You crushed a flower and you stole the seed
they are from left to right.....Heather, Cookie(Carol-Jean), Jimmie, and Ralene....not pictured is John Morris Rankin(older brother)....he played with them....at least when I saw them live.

Well I should have known I'd never see you again
You broke a heart that just won't mend
You came to me in time of need
You left a flower but you stole the seed
I can see you now with someone new
That deceiving smile and your eyes so blue
You're just another hungry mouth to feed
You left a flower but you stole the seed
I hung your picture upon my wall
You built me up just to make me fall
I should have known the ways of greed
You left a flower but you stole the seed
Well I'm sad for you and your evil ways
Your heart is cold as a winter day
You're always searching for a soul to bleed
You left a flower but you stole the seed
I hung your picture upon my wall
You built me up just to make me fall
I should have known the ways of greed
You left a flower but you stole the seed
I should have known the ways of greed
You left a flower but you stole the seed
You crushed a flower and you stole the seed

Rest In Peace Raylene
