Ron Hawkins - Prairie Girl lyrics

I've been around, had my ups and my downs Took my share and paid my dues Went to bed with a dream in my head And woke up with the bad boy blues But when you're gamblin' all of the time Don't matter if you win or lose And I ain't never been shy so I don't know why I'm standing talking to your shoes I guess it's 'cause oh, I love you so You thrill me like a Tilt-o-Whirl With your heart-stoppin', jaw-droppin' big sky love My pretty little prairie girl Rogue males and old lone wolves Ain't much for self control They sleep with one foot in your bed The other headin' for the door Feet get cold and hearts they can freeze In the dark nights of your soul But I don't care who disagrees Falling in love is totally rock n' roll And I say oh, I love you so And when my flag unfurls There'll be a heart tattoo with a picture of you My pretty little prairie girl In the rain those trains and planes They took me all around this world But all that steel and chrome made me think about home My fingers running through your curls I say oh, I love you so And there's one thing I'm sure I'd crawl a thousand miles just to see that smile My pretty little prairie girl And I say oh, I love you so And it ain't such a dark old world I see the future rise in the light of your eyes My pretty little prairie girl
