Lyrics
She Got Away - S. Domer 2011
He was just a lonely boy, out looking for the girl of his dreams
Each night he'd try a different place thinking that he needs a change
of scene
At a bar one night he saw her, looking so fine
But she up and left before he could buy her some wine
She got away, Oh no she got away
He had to find her now, so he made a different plan
One night at a rodeo he saw her sitting in the stands
He tried to get to her, pushing through the crowd
But once he got there I heard him shout out loud
She got away, woh no she got away
She got away yeah, he'll have to look another day
In dreams each night he sees her, although they've never met
An elusive butterfly he can never get
She got away, woh no she got away
She got away yeah, he'll have to look another day
Like a hound dog following a scent
He's hot on her trail
With all the looking and the places he went
It's still the same tale
She got away, woh no she got away
She got away yeah, he'll have to look another day
She got away yeah, he'll find her someday
She got away yeah, I know he'll find a way
