BILLIE JO

I met a purty blossom walkin' by
the other day
Like the first bright ray o' sunshine
When it's at the break
o' day
Now she's kinda sweet, and kinda shy
This lovely, brown eyed
doe
And when I asked her what her name was
She smiled and told me, Billie
Jo
Now there's somethin' in her movement
Like a
wildflower in the breeze
Just a swayin' on the hillside
Back and forth in
graceful ease
And her eyes, they tell you somethin'
Just as
much as when she speaks
And her hair falls loose and lovely
In brown locks
around her cheeks
Well she acts laid back, but somehow
You can
tell she's got some fire
And there's somethin' 'bout her smile
That stirs
the embers of desire
Now she ain't too tame or settled
Least ways
she ain't settled yet
But that's just fine, cause that was 'fore the
time
When she and I first met
And she'll charm you if you don't watch out
I
know I found it so
And she's just a purty blossom
And her name is Billie
Jo
