ashland city

 

Well I don't know how I found her

Love works in mysterious ways

I could hardly afford a cup of coffee back then

Weren't exactly my cider 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

 

'Cause 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

Doing that shake & bake

She was just enough Ashland City

And buddy that's about all it takes

 

A week later we got married

I was going to 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 have known the way to San Jose

But I didn't know a thing about love

And she was just enough ashland city,
To wanna put that T-top down
And take a skinny dip in that old gravel pit
About 20 miles out of town

And Lord, didn't she look pretty
Slipping out of those bell-bottom jeans
Well she was just enough ashland city
And that's more than I'd ever seen

 

That was fifteen years ago

Nothing much has changed

I still try to play the big shot

She still dresses strange

 

She still has a hard time telling you about herself

So let me tell you a little bit

About this woman I love

Cause buddy she is something else

 

'Cause she was just enough Ashland City

To wanna watch the sun go down

Just enough small town shy
To keep this old boy hanging around

 

 

But Lord don't she look pretty

In an evening gown or jeans
Well she's just enough Ashland City
And that's just enough woman for me.

Well, she's just enough Ashland City
To wanna watch the sun go down
And just enough small town shy
To keep this old guy hanging around

Lord don't she look pretty
in an evening gown or jeans... (fades)
