Cowgirl and the Dandy

(Bobby Goldsboro)



In the airport lounge, he sat with his cane and durby hat

The grandest man that I had ever seen

Outside the heavy rains had grounded all the planes

So I asked him if he'd like some company.



In my rhinestone-studded suit, and my cowgirl high-heel boots

I must have been a site for him to see

But he said, "Pull up a chair as I fumble with my hair."

A more unlikely pair you'll never see.



I was Mogan David wine, he was Chablis fifty-nine

But there we sat the cowgirl and the dandy

He was ski resorts in Aspen and summers in Paris

I was Grand Ole Opry Nashville, Tennessee.



The cowgirl and the dandy as different as can be

But it seemed so right that rainy night in Tennessee.



Then somewhere in between his Harvey's Bristol cream

And the beer that I kept sippin' at his table

We somehow came together for a night of stormy weather

Now there's a little bit of class in this old cowgirl

An' there's a little country in the dandy.



The cowgirl and the dandy as different as can be

But it seemed so right that rainy night in Tennessee.



I was Mogan David wine, he was Chablis fifty-nine

But there we sat the cowgirl and the dandy

He was ski resorts in Aspen and summers in Paris

I was Grand Ole Opry Nashville, Tennessee.



He was ski resorts in Aspen and summers in Paris

I was Grand Ole Opry Nashville, Tennessee...
