Gone Country

Once she gone country
She never goin' back
She feelin' right at home
With her boots up on my dash
When she go back to the city
That's just a path
She headed for a spot a little further off the map, yeah

She was shy when he met her in that bar
Said she was from a place stars don't light up the dark
She said she wasn't stayin', she was only passin' through
And he said: Okay, I just want one little dance with you
Once she heard the band playin', her hips started swingin'
Her lips started twangin' from that whiskey she was drinkin'
She told him she was thinkin' the bar's about to close
He said: Where you wanna go?
And she said: Anywhere but home

'Cause once she gone country
She never goin' back
She feelin' right at home
With her boots up on my dash
When she go back to the city
That's just a path
She headed for a spot a little further off the map, yeah
Once she gone country
She never goin' back
She never goin' back
No, never goin' back

He turned the key and took her on a Chevy ride
That radio was on, that ain't my truck from '95
And she said: Wait, I know this, this is Alabama, right?
That boy, he laughed so hard, I felt his truck was crossin' double yellow lines
They were chasin' that Moon off the pavement
They parked and parked they beams on the hood and watched it fadin'
That's when he heard her sayin': This as good it gets
Leaned a smile up on her lips, said she could get real used to this

'Cause once she gone country
She never goin' back (Never goin' back)
She feelin' right at home
With her boots up on my dash
When she go back to the city
That's just a path
She headed for a spot a little further off the map, yeah
Once she gone country
She never goin' back (Never goin' back)
She feelin' right at home
With her boots up on my dash (Yeah, yeah)
When she go back to the city
Oh, that's just a path
She headed for a spot a little further off the map, yeah
Once she gone country
Oh, once she gone country (Once she gone country)
Yeah, once she gone country
That girl ain't never goin'
That girl ain't never goin' back
Yeah, never goin' back
