Day by day,
she keeps keeping on
Stretching every dollar, turning every dime
Up at break of dawn
And working late at night
Ooh,
it's a hard life
But
when I see her smiling Ooh,
then I know
She's dreaming,
dreaming of a cowboy Six foot five with clear blue eyes
She's hoping,
hoping for one more chance At a slow dance down in Tupelo
She's dreaming,
dreaming of a romance She's hoping,
hoping for one more chance
She's waiting down in Tupelo
I've seen her sitting in that checkout line
Hair pulled back, still looking fine
She's humming along to work in nine to five
And when I see her smiling Ooh,
then I know
She's dreaming,
dreaming of a cowboy Six foot five with clear blue eyes
She's hoping,
hoping for one more chance At a slow dance down in Tupelo
She's dreaming,
dreaming of a romance She's hoping,
hoping for one more chance
She's waiting down in Tupelo
That banker in Jackson said find love and settle down
But she's not making those kinds
of plans
All I know,
she just wants someone who knows
How to slow dance She's dreaming,
dreaming of a cowboy Six
foot five with clear blue eyes She's hoping,
hoping for one more chance At a slow dance down in Tupelo
She's dreaming,
dreaming of a romance She's hoping,
hoping for one more chance She's waiting down in Tupelo
