Well I don't know how I found her |
|
Love works in mysterious ways |
|
I could hardly afford a cup of
coffee back then |
|
Weren't exactly my cider days |
|
|
|
She knew I was just pretending |
|
To be some kind of big shot |
|
It took her two hours to tell a
little something about herself |
|
And that's when my heart stopped |
|
|
|
'Cause she was just enough Ashland
City |
|
To wanna watch the sun go down |
|
She was just enough small town
girl |
|
To cook my supper in an evening
gown |
|
|
|
But Lord didn't she look pretty |
|
Doing that shake & bake |
|
She was just enough Ashland City |
|
And buddy that's about all it
takes |
|
|
|
A week later we got married |
|
I was going to show her the world |
|
"Cause I was Mr. Sophisticated |
|
And she was just a country girl |
|
|
|
She wound up showing me everything |
|
I'd ever been dreaming of
Well I might have known the way to San Jose |
|
But I didn't know a thing about
love
And she was just enough ashland
city,
To wanna put that T-top down
And take a skinny dip in that old gravel pit
About 20 miles out of town
And Lord, didn't she look pretty
Slipping out of those bell-bottom jeans
Well she was just enough ashland city
And that's more than I'd ever seen |
|
|
|
That was fifteen years ago |
|
Nothing much has changed |
|
I still try to play the big shot |
|
She still dresses strange |
|
|
|
She still has a hard time telling
you about herself |
|
So let me tell you a little bit |
|
About this woman I love |
|
Cause buddy she is something else |
|
|
|
'Cause she was just enough Ashland
City |
|
To wanna watch the sun go down |
|
Just enough small town shy
To keep this old boy hanging around |
| |
|
|
|
But Lord don't she look pretty |
|
In an evening gown or jeans
Well she's just enough Ashland City
And that's just enough woman for me.
Well, she's just enough Ashland
City
To wanna watch the sun go down
And just enough small town shy
To keep this old guy hanging around
Lord don't she look pretty
in an evening gown or jeans... (fades) |
