Freckles The Oak Ridge Boys

They'd all called her Freckles when summer was coming around
All the kids that were running and laughing and some turned to brown
And I'd find her crying and hurt by the words that they said
And follow her home just trying to be her friend

And I'd say Freckles you're pretty
There's a rainbow on your face
Do you want to know a secret?
None of them could take your place
Cause your different and special
And she'd hold my hand and sigh
And say I always want to see me through your eyes

But summers just turned into winters and then into years
And slowly the smile of a woman replaced all her tears
And some how I knew in a while that my friend would be gone
As I watched a sad ugly duckling turn into a swan

And I said Freckles you're special
And she'd hold my hold and sigh
And say I always want to see me through your eyes

But soon she was flying, dancing laughing and proud
And I took my place, a face alone in a crowd
Knowing her lovers can't see past her smooth golden skin
And that's how I know that Freckles will come back again
