Lyrics

I loved to listen to old Jean
Tell his stories and sing his songs
There was one in French he used to sing
About a girl named Florida Lee
Jean Pierre come from down south
Big old city of New Orleans
He'd tell of his time there in his youth
And I would go there in my dreams
Florida Lee, Florida Lee
That was the song he used to sing
Florida Lee, Florida Lee
She must have been something to see
He taught me how to rope a calf
He taught me how to bust a bronc
We'd go into town and he'd bust us up too
Trying to order wine in a honky tonk
He'd hum or sing the melody
As we'd ride throughout the day
He never told us when we'd ask
"It's just a song", he'd always say
Florida Lee, Florida Lee
That was the song that he would sing
Florida Lee, Florida Lee
She must have been a sight to see
I never could make out the words
Course I wouldn't know what they mean
I just could pick out that one phrase
When he sung of Florida Lee
I like to think it was a love
He left somewhere along the way
Maybe a Texas Bess or a Utah Jane
Will make me sing of them someday
Florida Lee, Florida Lee
That was the song he used to sing
Florida Lee, Florida Lee
She must have been something to see
She must have been a sight to see
