Tarheel Slim:
I hear you knocking
on my door
you can't come in
I don't want you no more
you're too late
bye darlin'
you're too late

Little Ann:
The morning I left you
On train number 9
I didn't realize
what I was leaving behind
I did, it was too late
too late too late

Tarheel Slim:
you took my heart
out in the park
you played a game
that you know
you couldn't win

Little Ann:
please forgive me
take me back and see
I'll never make the same
mistake again

Tarheel Slim:
you're too late
I have found somebody new
and she loves me
like I once loved you
you're too late
my darlin'
you're too late
