my lyricsbox
In the airport lounge he sat with his cane and derby hat
The grandest man that I had ever seen
Outside the heavy rains had grounded all the planes
So I asked him if he'd like some company

In my rhinestone studded suit, and my cowgirl high heel boots
I guess I was a sight for him to see
But he said pull up a chair, as I fumbled with my hair
A more unlikely pair you'll never see

I was Mogen David wine, he was Chablis '59
But there we sat the cowgirl and the dandy
He was ski resorts in Aspen and summers in Paree
I was country music Nashville, Tennessee

The cowgirl and the dandy as different as can be
But it seemed so right that rainy night in Tennessee
Then somewhere in between his Harvey's Bristol Cream
And the beers that I kept sipping at the table
We somehow came together for a night of stormy weather
Now there's a little bit of class in this ole cowgirl
And there's a little bit of country in the dandy

The cowgirl and the dandy as different as can be
But it seemed so right that rainy night in Tennessee

I was Mogen David wine, he was Chablis '59
But there we laid, the cowgirl and the dandy
He was ski resorts in Aspen and summers in Paree
I was country music, Nashville, Tennessee

He was ski resorts in Aspen and summers in Paree
I was country music Nashville, Tennessee
This song is from the album "Greatest Country Hits [MCA]" and "Even Better [MCA]".
