Just play me a tune

Sitting with my girlfriends at the Bluebird

Couldn't help it when he caught my eye

Snug-fitting Levi's, striped flannel shirt

Guitar case blocking the aisles

Big baby blues and a smile pearly white

I bet if he stands, we would have a good sight

The boots were all dusty, Stetson the same

Couldn't help it, just had to get the boy's name

When he opened his mouth, I expected Paisley

With looks like that the voice had to fit

But his "Hallo Baby" sounded like Grandma Daisy

My girls all choked in laughing fits...

Baby please don't talk you're gorgeous enough

Don't spoil the fantasy by making us laugh

Our composure, long tried, has left us in ruin

Just pick up your Fender, and just play me a tune...

Transported in time, he carried us away

Long past our bedtime and curfew we stayed

His fingers strummed a melody from the Gods

We all jumped to our feet in wondrous applause

He got down off the stage and we waited for him

He walked straight past us, to a blonde thing, so thin

And so young that we couldn't but help feeling green

Obviously, she doesn't mind if he can't sing

Well, we stayed for the second set to cheer the boy on

Along with his Barbie until close to dawn

As we left, I couldn't help taking a second glance

If only he couldsing, I would have taken that chance
