Lyrics
Dawson
We pulled into portland town
We been on the road
Rock and rolling for the crowd
Three more nights to go
But if I don't find someone tonight
I just won't make it through
I'm going out in portland town
And see what I can do
You know, it's very cold in portland town
This time of the year,
I wouldn't mind if I could find
Someone to hold me near
And there's a little girl,
She looks lost and lonely
Backstage at the show
I'm going up and asking her
Hey, would you like to go
You see I need me a portland woman
I don't want to be alone tonight
I want to get me a portland woman
Portland women treat you right
Portland's gonna be mine tonight
We pulled out of portland town
Almost right on time,
The little girl that I had found,
Her I left behind
But I haven't felt too good
Since I left portland yesterday
I'm going back to portland town,
Now what more can I say
I wanna get me a portland woman
I don't wanna be alone tonight
I wanna get me a portland woman
Portland women treat you right
Portland's gonna be mine tonight
