The Cowboy and the Lady (Digital Remastered)

In the airport lounge
She sat in a Marlene Dietrich hat
The grandest lady I had ever seen
Outside the heavy rains
Had grounded all the planes
So I asked her
If she'd like some company

In my rhinestone studded suit
My cowboy hat and boots
I must have ben a sight for her to see
But she said: "Pull up a chair"
As she fumbled with her hair
A more unlikely pair you'll never see

I was Mogen David wine
She was Chablis Fifty-nine
But there we sat
The cowboy and the lady
She was ski resorts in Aspen
And summers in Paris
I was Grand Ole Opry
Nashville, Tennessee
The cowboy and the lady
As different as could be
But it seemed so right
That rainy night in Tennessee

Then somewhere in between
Her Harvey's Bristol Cream
And the seven beers
I ordered for the lady
We somehow came together
For a night of stormy weather
Now there's a little bit of class
In this old cowboy
And there's a little bit of
Cowboy and the lady

And when the thunder had all gone
And the night turned into dawn
I woke up all alone
Without the lady
She'd left a note for me
Said it was nice in Tennessee
But it could never be
For you and me
No, it could never be
For a cowboy and a lady.
