There was a dive bar and a cowboy
|
Well, not a cowboy really, but he wore the hat
|
And there was someone who looked like me
|
At least a little, but not exact
|
|
He said, "I'm gonna take you out proper
|
You and me are going to the zoo."
|
And I pretended that I was bored
|
And I could take my eyes off of you
|
|
All I had to do was ask
|
I never knew that this would last
|
I never knew what I was in for
|
This town thinks it's got your number
|
It's unlisted, but they can wonder and guess and speculate on you and me
|
|
Little did I know,
|
Little did I see
|
Little did I know just how far our little car could go
|
Little did I know
|
|
Said he was damaged over whiskey
|
A kind of Kerouac over cigarettes
|
"Let me guess, you're a gambler, too?"
|
He said, "I bet I marry you."
|
|
Well, I was talking like a bad-ass, too
|
A kind of animal all my own
|
"No one's ever gonna tie me down,
|
Especially not some Romeo."
|
|
All I had to do was look
|
You were such an open book
|
How could I miss what I was in for?
|
Go on ahead and be a loner
|
Pur on your distant look and roam around the west
|
Like Jack and Neal and Dean
|
|
Little did I know
|
|
And I drove a thousand miles for you
|
I even bent the rules, it's true
|
I swear to everything above
|
I never knew you at all, my love
|
