Arlene

Marty Stuart · Other Songs - Marty Stuart

Rollin' down the highway, runnin' by the cotton fields



Saw a sign I know I want to see again



Pretty young woman wearing skin-tight britches



And a T-shirt wetter than a snake-skin



Somebody said her name was Arlene



And her daddy is a shotgun toting kind of country man



I just said, "What was that name again?"



Ain't nobody gonna scare me away



Gonna hold my breath till I take her away



Arlene, hey are you comin' into town?



Arlene, don't let your daddy tie you down



When you're sneaking out that window, baby, don't you make a sound



Do you want to boogie? Are you into fool, fool, foolin' around?



Well, daddy ain't a working, he's a sitting in lawn chair



Chewin' on a mighty plug of Redman



Pretty as a picture and he's got her chopping cotton



Like a convict sweating on a chain gang



Somebody oughta break her out of that scene



She's enough to make you wanna do the old man in



Hey, what was that name again?



Ain't no use in tryin' to settle me down



I'm a fool, I'm a downright clown, clown for Arlene



Arlene, hey are you comin' into town?



Arlene, don't let your daddy tie you down



When you're sneaking out that window, baby, don't you make a sound



Do you want to boogie? Are you into fool, fool, foolin' around?



Sitting in a bacco patch feeling like a weasel



I'm a waitin' on the lights to go dim



Wonderin' if my backside might be full of bullet shots



Before she gets away from him



Ain't nobody gonna scare me away



Gonna hold my breath till I take her away



Arlene, hey are you comin' into town?



Arlene, don't let your daddy tie you down



When you're sneaking out that window, baby, don't you make a sound



Do you want to boogie? Are you into fool, fool, foolin' around?



When you're sneaking out that window, baby, don't you make a sound



Do you want to boogie? Are you into fool, fool, foolin' around?



Come on Arlene, I see you got that red dress on



This is it
