Just Enough Ashland City |
Well I don’t know how I found her |
Love works in mysterious ways |
Well I could hardly afford a cup of coffee back then |
Weren’t exactly my salad days |
She knew I was just pretending |
To be some kind of big shot |
It took her two hours to tell a little something about herself |
And that’s when my heart stopped |
She was just enough Ashland City |
To wanna watch the sun go down |
She was just enough small town girl |
To cook my supper in an evening gown |
But Lord didn’t she look pretty |
Doin' that shake and bake |
She was just enough Ashland City |
And buddy that’s about all it takes |
A week later we got married |
Yeah, I was gonna show her the world |
'Cause I was Mr. Sophisticated and she was just a country girl |
She wound up showing me everything |
I’d ever been dreaming of |
Well, I might’ve known the way to San Jose |
But I didn’t know a thing about love |
She was just enough Ashland City |
To wanna put the t-top down |
Take a skinny dip in that old gravel pit |
About twenty miles out of town |
But Lord didn’t she look pretty |
Swimming out of those bell bottom jeans |
She was just enough Ashland City |
And that’s more than I’d ever seen |
That was fifteen years ago |
Nothing much has changed |
Well I still try to play the big shot yeah and she’s still dressing strange |
She still has a hard time |
Telling you about herself |
So let me tell you a little about the woman I love |
'Cause buddy she’s something else |
She’s just enough Ashland City |
To wanna watch the sun go down |
Just enough small town shy |
To keep this ol' boy hanging around |
Lord don’t she look pretty |
In an evening gown or jeans |
She’s just enough Ashland City |
That’s just enough woman for me |
