Story behind the song
The girls are always prettier on the other side....
Lyrics
One day long ago, I was playing a show In a place I like to call Texas I played my guitar and got drinks at the bar And then I saw one beautiful waitress She had beautiful hair and a cute little booty And she walked up to me and she said "Howdy doody" I said "you're the finest damn girl in the wild west" And she slapped my face as I stared at her chest Chorus: Well the girls ain't nearly as pretty This side of the ol' Mississippi Some got mustaches, others got beards I wish, oh I wish that some Texans lived here I was singing a song in Kansas City When some lady walked over who was oh so pretty She asked me to dance, and I said "yes ma'am." She didn't tell me though, she wanted to shwam She brought me to her place but I wasn't ready So she threatened me with a bowl o' spaghetti I ran for my life and left that town There are plenty of pretty girls around Chorus I was at a party in good ol' Missouri When I saw a lass, who was in such a hurry She was the cutest thing I'd seen in my life And I swore on that day that she'd be my wife She ran from the party and I followed behind But then I found out she wasn't so kind She took of her shoes and threw 'em at me But still she's the most beautiful gal you'll see Chorus
