Lyrics

FOR A WHILE


YOU?RE A CAPTIVATING COWBOY AND A CHARMING COUNTRY SON
AND YOU CIRCULATE THE STORIES BOUT THE RIDING YOU HAVE DONE
TIL ANOTHER LUCKY LADY GETS TO WORSHIP NUMBER ONE
FOR A WHILE FOR A WHILE FOR A WHILE

SO YOU SET YOURSELF IN MOTION AND YOU SET A TORRID PACE
AS YOU SET YOUR SIGHTS ON SOMEONE NEW TO BE IN SECOND PLACE
YOU WILL FIND YOUR BED OF ROSES - YOU WILL GO THAT EXTRA MILE
FOR A WHILE, FOR A WHILE, FOR A WHILE

BUT THEN IT?S
(CHORUS)
SORRY HONEY BUT YA DON?T GET ME
SORRY HONEY BUT YA DON?T GET ME
SORRY HONEY BUT YA DON?T GET ME YA KNOW THAT?S NOT MY STYLE
SORRY HONEY BUT YA DON?T GET ME AT LEAST YOU MADE ME SMILE
FOR A WHILE, FOR A WHILE, FOR A WHILE

OH THE PONIES ARE YOUR PASSION AND PERDUASION IS YOUR PRIDE
YOU?RE A WRANGLER FROM THE RODEO IT?S ALWAYS BEEN YOUR GUIDE
SO YOU THINK YOU ARE A WINNER CUZ YOU?VE ONLY GOT TO RIDE
FOR A WHILE, FOR A WHILE, FOR A WHILE

AND THEN IT?S (CHORUS)

OO MY AND EVERY PLACE THAT YOU GO
OO MY SOMETHING SIMILAR OCCURS
OO MY YOU?RE A SILVER TONGUED DIABLO
FROM THE TOP OF YOUR TEN GALLON TO THE BOTTOM OF YOUR SPURS

SO YOU?VE GOT ME RIPE FOR ROUND UP AND YOU LOCK ME IN YOU GAZE
YOU HAVE COURTED ME WITH YET ANOTHER PERFECT TURN OF PHRASE
WHEN YOU SEE ME START TO WEAKEN YOU?LL BE CRANKING UP THE DIAL
FOR A WHILE, FOR A WHILE, FOR AWHILE

BUT ( CHORUS)
