Pam Tillis - I Was Blown Away lyrics

rate me

You drove up in your pickup truck

That hot September day

Not a wisp of wind in the parking lot

But honey I was blown away

And later on that fall at the Dixie Mall

When I didn't know what to say

I seen hide nor hair of no dynamite

But honey I was blown away

(Chorus)

Big sister said "You'd better watch out"

I slammed the door and said

"You don't know what you're talkng about

Mama said I sang when the telephone rang

And she called out "Honey, it's Ray"

Like a piece of dust on a four lane road

Honey I was blown away

I'm talikng 'bout smithereens

Just you in a pair of jeans

Now I know what crazy means

(Repeat chorus)

Then one Tuesday night Daddy said

"Some guy's on the porch with a big bouquet"

As you stood out there with your slicked-back hair

I was blown away

And when we slipped out back

'cross the railroad track

And you softly touched my face

Well I never did feel a train go by

But Honey I was blown away

No I never did feel a train go by

But I was blown away
