Different Kind Of Flower

[Verse 1]
She came down from Boston to be closer to her mother
And to try a little taste of country life
She was her mother's only daughter
From a good school where they taught her
How to walk and talk and fold a napkin right

[Verse 2]
I was boots and Levis born for drivin' cows and plantin' corn
And anything that sparkled caught my eye
She was a different kind of flower
Nothin' like my country clover
But I figured I could touch her if I tried

[Chorus]
I only meant to touch her just one time and let her go
But touchin' her was lovin' her, and how was I to know
That she'd be the kind of flower calloused hands could never hold
While I was reachin' for her body, she was reachin' for my soul

[Verse 3]
She went back to Boston, my soul is all it cost me
Just to touch her, now I wish I'd never tried
She was a different kind of flower
After havin' known her
I just can't keep country clover on my mind

[Chorus]
I only meant to touch her just one time and let her go
But touchin' her was lovin' her, and how was I to know
That she'd be the kind of flower calloused hands could never hold
While I was reachin' for her body, she was reachin' for my soul
