The princess of my heart, she is someone I know   She doesn't appear in the headlines wherever I go   The princess of my heart won't take good fortune to see   Oh, but it's my good fortune that she is with me   I hope she knows, yes, she knows, then that's alright      How dark would be my heart if she were taken away?   The death of a famous name would mean little that day   I hope she knows, yes, she knows, then that's alright      I hear the lynch mob baying   I'd better guard what I am saying   They've come to tear apart the few   Heartless ones of a different view      And I'm sitting here not much to show   Just a few lines to let her know, maybe she knows   Yes, she knows, then that's alright      The princess of my heart she is someone I know
