I Was Blown Away - Layng Martine, Jr.

You drove up in your pickup truck 
That hot September day 
Not a wisp of wind in the parking lot 
But honey I was blown away 

And later on that fall at the Dixie Mall 
When I didn't know what to say 
I seen hide nor hair of no dynamite 
But honey I was blown away 

Big sister said "You'd better watch out" 
I slammed my door and said 
"You don't know what you're talkin' about" 

Mama said I sang when the telephone rang 
And she called out "Honey, it's Ray" 
Like a piece of dust on a four lane road 
Honey I was blown away 

I'm talking 'bout smithereens 
Just you in a pair of jeans 
Now I know what crazy means 

Chorus 

Then one Tuesday night Daddy said 
"Some guy's on the porch with a big bouquet" 
You stood there with your slicked-back hair 
And honey, I was blown away 

And when we slipped out back 
Across the railroad track 
And you softly touched my face 
Well I never did feel a train go by 
But honey, I was blown away 

No, I never did feel a train go by 
But honey, I was blown away
