8th Day

8 years old, gone fishin' With a handful of worms On a river bank with her daddy cheeks all smudged in dirt Shes so proud, catchin' fish, missin' both front teeth Her daddy blind and happy, to the trouble she'll be (And oh the trouble she'll be) Complicated, wonder must have took more time To figure her out To get perfect just right 7 days he took then he said It's good but there's just somethin' missin' in my world So on the 8th day, God made country girls Mmmmhmmm, country girls Teenage boy at an auction Gettin' out bid on a truck By a pony tail in the front row Wearin' boots and trackin' mud Hes so mad But she's so cute He just can't speak his mind She winks as she passes Says "Hon, looks like you'll need a ride" (Oh aint he in for a ride) Complicated, wonders gonna take him time To figure her out To get perfect just right Couple dates in the woods Then he said "this is good You were the something missin' in my world" Thank heaven on the 8th day God made country girls Mmmmhmmm, country girls Make you laugh Make you cry Make you pace the porch on a friday night With a shotgun at your side Cuzy he's late again Screen door creeks Your wife steps out She said "Honey, you stand down, that used to be you and I And, don't you forget, and if he's anything like you He's in over his head Complicated, wonders gonna take some time To figure her out To get perfect just right Cuz 7 days it took the Lord said "It's good But there's still somethin' missin' in this world" So on the 8th day God made, country girls Mmmmhmmm, country girls Country girls, mmmhmmm Country girls
