First Place Ribbon |
Kathy never would wear britches |
Kathy never would wear shoes |
She’s the kinda girl, likes some dust between her toes |
Since she never gets the blues |
Met her on a Sunday at the county fair |
With a first place ribbon in her hair |
Oh, Kathy never did like preachers |
Didn’t like to tell the truth |
Caught my eye, no she was not shy |
I was a’walking by the kissing booth |
Met her on a Sunday at the county fair |
With a first place ribbon in her hair |
(What'd you get that ribbon for, Kathy?) |
Oh Kathy never would be bridled |
Wouldn’t ever settle down |
Broke my heart, and I bawl and cry |
Every time the fair’s in town |
Met her on a Sunday at the county fair |
With a first place ribbon in her hair |
