Girl Haggard

I'm just a dark-haired beauty living in a trailer park
Working out at the kennels, walking the dogs 'til dark
I dream when I paint my lips up bright
I'm a big city woman on a Saturday night

Well here I go through those swinging doors again
I walk straight to the jukebox and roll the quarter in
Any song by Merle drives me out of this world
My friends all say that I'm a love-sick girl
A girl Haggard

Well everybody tied to warn me
Lord knows my momma tried
But the man with the rambling fever
Has got me hypnotized
The Okie from Muskogee's got me dreamin' of the day
His silver wings will come to carry me away
Girl Haggard

I'm always goin' out, goin' where the lonely go
And when the bottle lets me down I'm dancin' all alone
With my eyes shut tight and a smile on my face
I dream that Merle will take me out of this place
Girl Haggard

Well everybody tied to warn me
Lord knows my momma tried
But the man with the rambling fever
Has got me hypnotized
The Okie from Muskogee's got me dreamin' of the day
His silver wings will come to carry me away
Girl Haggard

I'd swim Kern river just to hold his hand
This farmer's daughter wants a branded man
A girl Haggard

I'd like to settle down with Merle Haggard
