Country Girl

Faron Young · An Introduction to Faron Young [Fuel 2000] [2006]

(Roy Drusky)



I met you my country girl

You didn't have a thing

I fell in love I dressed you up

And I bought the ring.



I was teaching you to love

You were learning fine

Then one day you learned too much

And it poisoned your sweet mind.



Now you've gone and left me

You're with somebody new

But I wonder if you told him

I bought the clothes on you.



When you do your dancin'

And you whisper soft and sweet

I wonder if you tell him

I bought the shoes on your feet.

Now I've lost my country girl

To a city love affair

He'd built you up, you fell for him

You didn't treat me fair.



You think that he's the dream come true

He says he loved you so

But wait until the word gets out

I taught you all that you know.



Now you've gone and left me

Now you've gone and left me

You're with somebody new

But I wonder if you told him

I bought the clothes on you.



When you do your dancin'

And you whisper soft and sweet

I wonder if you tell him

I bought the shoes on your feet...
