Album: The Return of Roger Miller

Ain't That Fine


Well I fell in love in Texas when a little girl said to me
Come on back down here you all and let's grow a little honey tree
Well I bought myself a ticket and the train leaves at quarter to four
I can see her now with her great big eyes waitin' at the station door

Ain't that fine ain't that fine
ain't that fine fine fine she's all mine

Well she took me home to mama and that didn't impress me much
Till she rolled out a great big welcome mat and that hit me with the magic touch
When she walks down the sidewalk all the cowboys step aside
Cause they all know she's a one man woman and she'll soon be roped and tied

Now tell you ain't that fine ain't that fine
ain't that fine fine fine she's all mine

Well now her daddy owns an oilwell in the Lone Star Texas State
And it shoots black gold to the clear blue sky and brother ain't that great
Well now I just can see me now boy with a big long fine cigar
A big success watchin' things progress a chauffeur with a long black car

Now come on and ain't that fine ain't that fine
ain't that fine fine fine she's all mine

Yeah ain't that fine fine fine she's all mine
