There Was This Girl

(альбом: Different 'Round Here - 2019)

Never knew my old man's truck could even run like that
Should've known better than to take that curve so fast
Daddy pulled up, I was down in a ditch
He asked me why I did what I did

There was this girl, drink in her hand
Shooting me a "let's get into trouble" grin
I ain't never seen something so fine
And I was doing anything to make her mine
I was out of my mind, she was out of this world
There was this girl

Some folks ask me why I still pick this guitar
They say living that life on the road won't get you very far
I say man you should've been down in Tupelo
Seen what was in the front row

There was this girl, beer in her hand
Shooting me a "play a little Skynyrd" grin
She's turning it up, she's turning me on
And I'd play her anything she'd sing along
I was out of my mind, she was out of this world
There was this girl
Yeah there was this girl

Didn't know a diamond ring could cost so much (damn)
Took six months on a farm 'fore I saved up
All my drinking buddies still out on the town
Wondering why I ever settled down

But there was this girl, holding my hand
Shooting me a "start a life together" grin
She's pulling me in, she's straightening me out
And now I know what love is all about
I'm still out of my mind, she's still out of this world
There was this girl

Yeah, there was this girl
Yeah, there was this girl
There was this girl
