Faron Young – Country Girl Lyrics

I met you, my country girl
You didn’t have a thing
I fell in love, I dressed you up
Then I bought the ring

I was teaching you to love
You were learning fine
Then one day, you learned too much
And it poisoned your sweet mind

Now you’ve gone and left me
You’re with somebody new
But I wonder if you told him
I bought the clothes on you

When you two are dancin’
And you whisper soft and sweet
I wonder if you tell him
I bought the shoes on your feet

Now I’ve lost my country girl
To a city love affair
He’d built you up, you fell for him
You didn’t treat me fair

You think that he’s a dream come true
He says he loves you so
But wait until the word gets out
I taught you all that you know

Now you’ve gone and left me
You’re with somebody new
But I wonder if you told him
I bought the clothes on you

When you two are dancin’
And you whisper soft and sweet
I wonder if you’ll tell him
I bought the shoes on your feet…
