She asked me where her eyes from
I said somewhere you've never been to
Little town outside of Knoxville
Hidden by some dogwood trees
She tried talking with my accent We held
hands and waded into that blue water
She left her flip-flops by my right wing on the beach
Yeah,
but now I'm
dodging pineol
And my sunburn's silver rider
Like a heart-broke desperado Headed right back to my roof
Something about the way she kissed me
Tells me she loved Eastern Tennessee
Yeah, but all that Broadway with me
Was some sand in my boots
I said,
let's go shoot tequila So we walked back to that beach bar
She said,
don't cowboys drink whiskey So we drank bottom shot
She said, damn, that skirt looks perfect
I said, girl, you've never seen stars like
the ones back home And she said,
maybe I should see them for
myself Yeah, but now
I'm dodging pineol
And my sunburn's silver rider Like a heart
-broke desperado Headed right back to my roof
Something about the way she kissed me
Tells me she loved Eastern Tennessee
Yeah,
but all that Broadway with me Was some sand in my boots
My boots
I said, meet me in the morning
And she told me I was crazy,
yeah
I still thought that maybe
she'd show up
And now I'm
dodging pineol And my sunburn's silver rider
Like a heart-broke desperado Headed right back to my roof
Something about the way she kissed me
Tells me she loved Eastern Tennessee
Yeah,
but all that Broadway with me Yeah,
but all that Broadway with me
