Lyrics

She's gettin' tired of that same ole routine
Going through the motions, ending up in the same scene
Wants to find someone
To put her back together, maybe have a little fun
At the end of the day when the work is all through
Wants to find somebody she can cozy up to
and say...

Baby we can watch NASCAR, after church on Sunday
Drink Budweiser, call in on Monday
Fish at the pond, take a ride in my pick-up truck
Let's make some deep fried lovin' and bar -b-que
Watch you lookin' at me lookin' at you
But most of all if you're gonna be with me
Ya gotta love that sweet tea

Out with her girls for the weekend
Have a few drinks, dance around with the same men
Along comes a new guy
Giddy-up in his step, sparkle in his eye
As he crosses the room, both of their hearts race
Brushes back her hair and as they start to embrace
He says...

Slow dancin' with the man of her dreams
A goodbye kiss, or so it seems
But at the end of the night, she can't be alone
She tells her good ole boy to "take me home"
and stay...

Come on...
