she was a sucker for a sad song
a little stubborn and headstrong
never liked to be wrong
but i still think she's alright.

she liked cream in her coffee
she turned this boy into a softy
i would lift the world right off me
just to hold her tight

i watched her sleeping in the morning
i watched her turn out the lights.

i was there when she loved me
i was there for every single fight.

i walked her through the good times
wanted to run her through the bad.

that woman was the best thing this country boy ever had.


she liked bubbles in her bathtub
a good book and a backrub
and two hours at the health club
three days a week.

she stayed out til last call
she loved horses and baseball
my heart skipped to watch her hair fall.
and i'd die to hear her speak.

i watched her sleeping in the morning
i watched her turn out the lights.

i was there when she loved me
and for every single fight.

i walked her through the good times
wanted to run her through the bad.

the woman was the best thing this country boy ever had.


somebody's on a roll,


scott
