Rose Maddox - Tall Man lyrics

I wish I was a kisstree a growing in the ground And everytime my sweet pa** by I'd throw some kisses down He's big and tall and handsome but bashful as can be I know he wants them kisses of mine but he won't climb the tree I love a tall man he ain't a small man my man is all man and the only one for me [ guitar ] He shys away from women he simply disappears Well he rides all day and he sleeps all night with a horse and a herd of steers That cowpoke he ain't human they say that he prepares To go to be with the sixgun on and never take off his spurs But I love a tall man he ain't a small man my man is all man and the only one for me [ guitar ] One night out on the prairie the moon was shining bright He put his arms around about me and things were going right He talk and talk of Texas and drawed his Texas draw When the moon went down and the sun came up nobody kissed me at all But I love a tall man he ain't a small man my man is all man and the only one for me [ guitar ] I wish I was a kisstree out on the lone prairie And everytime my sweet pa** by he'd steal a kiss from me And if he weants more kisses here's all he has t know Just cut me down and in a Texas town and watch them kisses grow I love a tall man he ain't a small man my man is all man and the only one for me
