Well I feel so lucky I feel so blessed I've met a girl I love the best She loves horses and sand beneath her feet She's got a quiet little house on a quiet little street Chorus She sings country music at night and gospel music at dawn But she's the happiest when the rodeo comes to town Well her mama died years ago, her daddy she hardly knew He lives out in the desert off of highway twenty-two And though she's lost her faith in marriage she does believe in love And when she wraps herself around me I thank the lord above Chorus When she gets the money she was thinking of heading out west Maybe join up with the rodeo if they'd just give her half a chance Well it's true when she tells me She says “Man, you've lost all ambition and drive” No I'm just fine to settle down with you forever by my side And though it hurts to know that I love her I love her more than she could ever love me No and it won't be very long when I'm a distant memory Chorus
