Well I met her waitin' tables in a coffee shop
One dark and lonely day
Ooh, I never would a' thought in a million years
That I could fall this way
It's funny how fate can fool ya
Just when you're givin' up
She said hello how are ya
And then she filled my cup.

 [bad word] 

And it was goodbye yesterday's heartache
So long to the born to lose
Cause now I've found the right way
It's been a hard luck road to a love long overdue.

Now her face was like an angel and her legs were long
I knew that somewhere down in my deep blue soul
This was meant to be
I asked her what ya doin' later
She said I'm free at five
I picked up the check to pay her
And she said you'd better be on time.

 [bad word] 

There right underneath all the Texas stars
She took my pain away
As I held her close in my tremblin' arms
I knew my world had changed
Told her that I was a rambler
She said yes I know
But when I looked her in those big brown eyes
Well that was all she wrote.
