Long Comes a Girl

You see the bobber droppin' while you're poppin' the top on a cold beer

And you bust through the mud in your old truck in low gear

It's shotguns, bird dogs, buddies and twelve ounce curls

And 'long comes a girl

Your spittin' and a-swearin' in the jeans you been wearing for two weeks

Paycheck, weekend, hardcore drinking and no sleep

Playing by the rules you made in a country boys world

And 'long comes a girl

You're losing track of time on a front porch swing

Writing love songs on your six string

If she ain't lightin' up your phone, you just let it ring

She got you falling like a star from a bluegrass sky

Tripping on a kiss on a Friday night

Hidin' in the clouds with her on a midnight high

'Long comes a girl

Never thought you'd be breakin' an iron out on a new shirt

Or singing along to "I Saw The Light" in an old church

Let alone taking out a twenty year loan for a piece of your own dirt

And 'long comes a girl

And you're losing track of time on a front porch swing

Writing love songs on your six string

If she ain't lightin' up your phone, you just let it ring

She got you falling like a star from a bluegrass sky

Tripping on a kiss on a Friday night

Hidin' in the clouds with her on a midnight high

'Long comes a girl

She got you falling like a star from a bluegrass sky

Tripping on a kiss on a Friday night

Hidin' in the clouds with her on a midnight high

'Long comes a girl

'Long comes a girl
