i got myself a story that i would like to tell. i was once like you are now, and this is just as well. got yourself a tan texas woman, beauty pageant crown, but the crown don't look so pretty now she's off runnin' around.
well, i've done my share of waiting, child. i was a lonely boy, but you can't spend your life just sitting around waiting for other folks to bring you joy.
my sermon continues...
she was a restless woman with ramblin' on her mind. and i was a sweet young innocent thing, just off the a**embly line. she took me right out on the highway. the lady had a feelin' for speed. when we hit 69 on those high bankin' curves, i thought this is all i'll ever need.
the lady, she has her own set of habits. do you really think that people can change? she went out and found herself another cowboy. broke my little home on the range. must have been sometime she was out buckin' broncos. i kept the torch lit at home. something [snapped], and the torch went [out], and i came to this conclusion on my own.
rather than sittin' at home, a'waitin' all alone for some sweet woman to be through, you got to get yourself a sweet young innocent thing and keep her home waitin' for you.
they say that god took a rib from adam. with this he gave eve life. well i don't put much stock in the bible, but this thought keeps me up at night. 'cuz if god took somethin' from me to make my lady friend, i think it was somethin' i was better off without. cuz' she stuck it right back in again.
rather than sittin' at home, a'waitin' all alone for some sweet woman to be through, you got to get yourself a sweet, young, innocent thing and keep her home waitin' for you.
