Makeup and faded blue jeans
Merle haggardI was set with a gig that would last us though out the weekend
I was singing a new song I wrote on the way into town
When she came in the front door I found her a place to sit down
Hey I knew right away that she liked the words to my song
Cause she stared at the guitar followed my fingers too long
And she had the likeness of a girl I'd seen in a dream
But lights can do wonders with makeup and faded blue jeans
And the last thing I needed was somebody messin' up my mind
So I found a hundred reasons for lookin' away one more time
She could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love with guitars
And to blow all my chances at bein' a big singin' star
With one passin' glance I could tell she was young for her age
Yeah she got to lookin' better as she got down closer to the stage
And as she sipped on her wine I knew just the kind she would be
And somehow I knew she was here to do bad things to me
I was right she could cause me to sing bad
And fall out of love with guitars
And blow all my chances at bein' a big singin' star
Eu estava definido com um show que duraria nós, embora o fim de semana
Eu estava cantando uma música nova que eu escrevi sobre o caminho para a cidade
Quando ela chegou na porta da frente Eu encontrei um lugar para se sentar
Ei, eu soube imediatamente que ela gostava das palavras para a minha música
Porque ela olhou para a guitarra seguido meus dedos muito longo
E ela tinha a semelhança de uma menina que eu tinha visto em um sonho
Mas as luzes podem fazer maravilhas com maquiagem e calça jeans desbotada
E a última coisa que eu precisava era alguém brincando 'a minha mente
Então, eu encontrei uma centena de razões para olhando para longe mais uma vez
Ela poderia causar-me a cantar mal e cair fora do amor com guitarras
E para explodir todas as minhas chances de bein 'um grande cantando estrela
Com um olhar passin 'Eu poderia dizer que ela era jovem para sua idade
Sim, ela tem que olhando melhor, ela desceu mais perto do palco
E enquanto bebia com o vinho eu sabia exatamente o tipo que ela seria
E de alguma forma eu sabia que ela estava aqui para fazer coisas ruins para mim
Eu estava certo que ela poderia causar-me para cantar ruim
E cair fora do amor com guitarras
E explodir todas as minhas chances de bein 'um grande cantando estrela
