[00:18.13]Long ago when I was a young man, working out in Tennessee
[00:27.27]I met a girl with flaming hair, green eyes and a temper harder than me
[00:35.91]We worked on a ranch a cowboy and cowgirl
[00:39.33]But ohh it wasn't meant to be
[00:44.62]Like mustangs running wild in Nevada, that girl just wanted to be free
[00:54.03]A girl as wild as the blazing sun she just wants to have fun
[01:02.41]Riding bulls, bucking broncos
[01:04.84]Drinking whisky all night
[01:06.99]Shooting bottles with a pistol
[01:09.40]Breaking up a fist fight
[01:11.68]Spit tobacco with your daddy
[01:14.09]Then line dance with your momma
[01:16.45]Rodeo from California all the way to Oklahoma
[01:21.14]Hell
[01:23.09]I never thought I would see
[01:24.34]A girl more cowboy than me
[01:39.41]Sherilee
[01:39.49]Now being a young man with heart shaped eyes
[01:42.45]I wanted to make her mine
[01:48.82]Put on a clean shirt and polished
[01:50.52]My boots until I could see them shine
[01:57.24]Went to town and bought the prettiest flowers
[02:00.28]That miss Sandy had at her store
[02:02.74]Then rode on up to the house on the hill and
[02:05.28]Knocked on Sherilee's door
[02:07.44]But boy did she knock me a peg or two when she said I don't want you
[02:17.04]Riding bulls, bucking broncos
[02:19.39]Drinking whisky all night
[02:21.59]Shooting bottles with a pistol
[02:23.95]Breaking up a fist fight
[02:26.24]Spit tobacco with your daddy
[02:28.61]Then line dance with your momma
[02:31.03]Rodeo from California all the way to Oklahoma
[02:35.67]Hell
[02:37.65]I never thought I would see
[02:41.15]Way out in Tennessee
[02:46.30]She was wild and free
[02:47.96]A girl more cowboy than me
[02:54.70]Sherilee
