Give Back My Heart |
I’m a traveling man don’t tie me down |
There’s just too much living going all around |
A man has got to see what he can see |
I love the road and I love the air |
And I don’t worry, hell, I never care |
I love my women, sometimes they love me |
But I was got one day, I still don’t know how |
I didn’t even like that town |
This fellow said «Stranger why don’t you just go on home?» |
And I said «Man that’s where I’m headed to |
And you couldn’t stop me if you knew what to do.» |
And I left and I planned to go alone |
But the road was long and home was far |
So I stopped off at this little cowboy-looking bar |
I walked on through the door and she just smiled |
In a long pony tail and a pretty white dress |
She said «Hi, bull riders do it best.» |
I said «Oh my God, what’s your name? |
My name’s Lyle.» |
And I said ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman |
Take your boots and walk out of my life |
Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman |
I can’t be no cowgirl paradise |
I looked at her and she looked at me |
And I looked back and she looked back |
And we went out together for a walk |
Her eyes were bright just like the stars |
But she drove a pickup said she hated cars |
But loved to ride around out after dark |
And I said ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman |
Take your boots and walk out of my life |
Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman |
I can’t be no cowgirl paradise |
I told her redneckness has got to be a disease |
You catch it on your fingers and it just crawls right up your sleeves |
Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman |
I can’t be no cowgirl paradise |
Well how she did it I’ll never know |
But it’s been maybe 20 years or so |
And she cooks the supper and I try to pay the rent |
But I’m a traveling man don’t tie me down |
There’s just too much living go all around |
But I can’t figure out quite where it went |
Then I think ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman |
Take your boots and walk out of my life |
Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman |
I can’t be no cowgirl paradise |
