There Was This Girl

Never knew my old man's truck could even run like that
 Should've known better than to take that curve so fast
 ♪
 Daddy pulled up, I was down in a ditch
 He asked me why I did what I did
 There was this girl, drink in her hand
 Shootin' me a "let's get into trouble" grin
 I ain't never seen somethin' so fine
 And I was doin' anything to make her mine
 I was out of my mind, she was out of this world
 There was this girl
 ♪
 Some folks ask me why I still pick this guitar
 They say livin' that life on the road won't get you very far
 I say man you should've been down in Tupelo
 Seen what was in the front row
 There was this girl, beer in her hand
 Shootin' me a "play a little Skynyrd" grin
 She's turnin' it up, she's turnin' me on
 And I'd play her anything she'd sing along
 I was out of my mind, she was out of this world
 There was this girl
 ♪
 Yeah there was this girl
 ♪
 Didn't know a diamond ring could cost so much (damn)
 Took six months on a farm 'fore I saved up
 All my drinkin' buddies still out on the town
 Wonderin' why I ever settled down
 But there was this girl, holdin' my hand
 Shootin' me a "start a life together" grin
 She's pullin' me in, she's straightenin' me out
 And now I know what love is all about
 I'm still out of my mind, she's still out of this world
 There was this girl
 Yeah, there was this girl
