Rural Route Kid

Blue sky breeze and a trail of dust
Sunday slow like fender rust
Ain't much else out here but us
And it fits just right
Cotton sheets out on a line
Red rose bloom on a July vine
Sunset glass, a front porch wine
And it taste just right
I ain't saying Heaven can't get any better
Is it too much to ask to just stay here forever
You shine like lights in the city
And they know for miles around
You're out of this world pretty
And I'm pretty sure by now
You could've had anybody
But you went and did what you did
Broke every heart in town
When you picked this rural route kid

Shooting stars and summer rain
Fall like me when you say my name
And after all who could blame
These arms right here
Wrapped around you in a warm sunrise
Hot coffee cup and your green eyes
I'll tell you no one's more surprised
Then this ole boy here
You shine like lights in the city
And they know for miles around
You're out of this world pretty
And I'm pretty sure by now
You could've had anybody
But you went and did what you did
Broke every heart in town
When you picked this rural route kid

I ain't saying that Heaven can't get any better
Is it too much to ask to just stay here forever
You shine like lights in the city
And they know for miles around
You're out of this world pretty
And I'm pretty sure by now
You could've had anybody
You went and did what you did
Broke every heart in town
When you picked this rural route kid
When you picked this rural route kid
I'm just a rural route kid
