lyrics

Wherever this road leads, you know I will follow
sure as the wheat flows into glasses of beer
til the day that my pride I will swallow
that’ll be the day when I know you grow near

Late nights by the campfire drinking strong whiskey
the embers are burning full of desire
I spent all my money smokin the kind
but I got one more bottle of wine that you can drink with me

We’re in love and that’s how you do it in Texas
you don’t need no diamond ring or necklace of pearls
you take me on the town and leave me under the table
that’s why I love you, you’re my country girl

My momma always told me, there’d be good days and bad
and hell you can tell her that she was right about that
but she never could have told me how good it would be
to have you on the bed of this dried up old creek

We’re in love and that’s how you do it in Texas
you don’t need no diamond ring or necklace of pearls
you take me on the town and leave me under the table
that’s why I love you, you’re my country girl

The’ll be plenty other birds singing out my name like they have for too long now
but don’t you worry baby, I ain’t no damn fool
I could never look at another the same way anymore
I been down that road before

I want to lay you down under an old oak tree
and take my time poring over this heavenly deed
if you promise not to leave oh then never will I falter
at the foot of God’s altar won’t you marry me
