In the airport lounge, he sat with his cane and durby hat 
The grandest man that I had ever seen 
Outside the heavy rains had grounded all the planes 
So I asked him if he'd like some company 
In my rhinestone-studded suit 
And my cowgirl high-heel boots 
I must have been a site for him to see 
But he said, "Pull up a chair" 
As I fumble with my hair 
A more unlikely pair you'll never see 
I was Mogan David wine 
He was Chablis fifty-nine 
But there we sat 
The cowgirl and the dandy 
He was ski resorts in Aspen 
And summers in Paris 
I was Grand Ole Opry Nashville, Tennessee 
The cowgirl and the dandy 
As different as can be 
But it seemed so right that rainy night in Tennessee 
Then somewhere in between 
His Harvey's Bristol cream 
And the beer that I kept sippin' at his table 
We somehow came together for a night of stormy wheater 
Now there's a little bit of class in this old cabin 
An' there's a little country in the dandy 
The cowgirl and the dandy 
As different as can be 
But it seemed so right that rainy night in Tennessee 
I was Mogan David wine 
He was Chablis fifty-nine 
But there we sat 
The cowgirl and the dandy 
He was ski resorts in Aspen 
And summers in Paris 
I was Grand Ole Opry Nashville, Tennessee 
He was ski resorts in Aspen 
And summers in Paris 
I was Grand Ole Opry Nashville, Tennessee
