The Girl I Was

She was a hometown, hair down, hand out the window
Blue jean baby, FFA
Sunday morning breaking cornbread with her kinfolk
Wasn't worried 'bout anything
Free as a Texas tumbleweed
Wild like a Wichita wind
Been forever ago since she came home
But damn, it's good to see her again

She looks like she used to look right now
Out there living it up
There's a spark in her eyes, some heart in her smile
That I ain't seen in a while
It's almost like she never left at all
Don't she look good in them boots?
She's doing alright it's about damn time
Lord, ain't that the truth
I'm finally looking in the mirror and seeing that me I love
I'm getting back to the girl I was

The girl I was was a big sky dreamer
Never heard of too much fun
No fear, two beer, do anythinger
Go up and talk to anyone
Her momma was her best friend
Yeah, that girl was always laughing

She looks like she used to look right now
Out there living it up
There's a spark in her eyes, some heart in her smile
That I ain't seen in a while
It's almost like she never left at all
Don't she look good in them boots?
She's doing alright it's about damn time
Lord, ain't that the truth
I'm finally looking in the mirror and seeing that me I love
I'm getting back to the girl I was

Before he broke my heart
Before I had to ride away
Before life got so hard
Back in the good ol' days

She looks like she used to look right now
Out there living it up
There's a spark in her eyes, some heart in her smile
That I ain't seen in a while
It's almost like she never left at all
Don't she look good in them boots?
She's doing alright it's about damn time
Lord, ain't that the truth
I'm finally looking in the mirror and seeing that me I love

I can't believe I ever thought she wasn't good enough
I'm getting back to the girl I was

Hmm-mm
