This song started out as a truck driver from Montana making the night
life of New York City. And it evolved to this.
My boots were old and scuffed up
My hat was slightly ruffed up
My jeans were just some faded old Levis
Still they let me in this place
Where folks wore suits and lace
That's where this ol' cowboy
Caught her eye
She walked my way and "oh boy"
Said dance with me cowboy
A night I won't forget in New York town
The difference in our past
Was sharp as the contrast
Of jeans against her white satin gown
Cho;
That's how big city-met big sky country
To change her city ways
It would be a fool that tries
She likes- bright city lights
I like- bright stars at night
But now and then big city
Has big skies in her eyes
Tag:
And ol'-big sky country
Sometimes wears suits and ties
