Long Comes A Girl

You see the bobber dropping while you're popping the top on a cold beer
And you bust through the mud in your old truck in low gear
It's shotguns, bird dogs, buddies and twelve ounce curls
And 'long comes a girl

You're spitting and a-swearing in the jeans you been wearing for two weeks
Paycheck, weekend, hardcore drinking and no sleep
Playing by the rules you made in a country boys world
And 'long comes a girl

You're losing track of time on a front porch swing
Writing love songs on your six string
If she ain't lighting up your phone, you just let it ring
She got you falling like a star from a bluegrass sky
Tripping on a kiss on a Friday night
Hiding in the clouds with her on a midnight high
'Long comes a girl

Never thought you'd be breaking an iron out on a new shirt
Or singing along to "I Saw The Light" in an old church
Let alone taking out a twenty year loan for a piece of your own dirt
And 'long comes a girl

And you're losing track of time on a front porch swing
Writing love songs on your six string
If she ain't lighting up your phone, you just let it ring
She got you falling like a star from a bluegrass sky
Tripping on a kiss on a Friday night
Hiding in the clouds with her on a midnight high

'Long comes a girl

She got you falling like a star from a bluegrass sky
Tripping on a kiss on a Friday night
Hiding in the clouds with her on a midnight high

'Long comes a girl
'Long comes a girl
