In the airport lounge he sat with his cane and derby 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 fumbled 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 weather
Now there's a little bit of class in this old cabin
An' there's a little bit of country in the dandy

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
