Slaid Cleaves - Flowered dresses lyrics

A D F#m E A She was leaning long legged D 'neath a bottle cap sign F#m E Of a country store with a coke and a smile A The coolest place to linger D On an Arkansas day F#m E When she saw him pa**ing by A He said "I'll take you back to Texas" D Said "my name is Ray" F#m E Where the stars are bigger than the Hit Parade A And she stopped dreamin' her dream D And she started dreamin' his F#m E Traded in her childhood D E A She wore flowered dresses for him D E A Rolled her hair, scrubbed her freckled skin D E On the chance that they were goin' out tonight A E/G# D Catch a show, maybe grab a bite D E A And she looked real nice, She looked real nice Verse Sometimes I think about my daddy And his old spice grin Cleaned pressed shirts, and a farmers tan She never asked him questions So he never told her lies But I heard my mama cry some And I was sitting in the hallway on the night he left Huggin my knees, holding my breath I never knew why but he was damn sure gone Thought it was maybe my fault Chorus 'Cause She wore flowered dresses for him Rolled her hair, scrubbed her freckled skin On the chance that they were goin' out tonight Catch a show, maybe grab a bite And she looked real nice, she looked real nice And she looked real nice, she looked real nice
