City Girl

There's a girl across the bar Seen her here every night this week She's singing how a siren might Swaying the boys into thinking they're unique I wonder what her story is And what she's looking for I wonder if she's the kind of gal That loves to be keeping score She's the city girl that asked me "Have I seen you before?" Said "honey, you only see me When I'm walking out the door" Said "you must be so tired Of carrying that weight" She smiled at me as if to say It was some twist of fate City girl City girl Well I'm the one that reads the room Always been the strong and silent type And when I stopped in and got fixed up We locked eyes when I lit up my pipe Said I wonder what her story is And what she's looking for I wonder if she's the kind of gal That loves to be keeping score She's the city girl that asked me "Have I seen you before?" Said "honey, you only see me When I'm walking out the door" Said "you must be so tired Of carrying that weight" She smiled at me as if to say It was some twist of fate City girl City girl
