You traveled the four corners of this world, so, tell me what made you stop right here

At this ca- fe' in this one horse town, well, I was drinkin' a cold rude beer

And then you walked through the door, I felt my heart just hit the floor

That's when this country boy fell in love with a city girl

I'm just a country boy that's all I've ever known, just some cowboy stop like that
D C D Em
I thought the world dropped off at the end of the county road, but you proved it wasn't flat
C Em C
Show me a brand new risin', unlike any west Texas sun rise
Em C D C
And easey as I never seen any- thin', so beautiful
[Chorus]
G Em
A country boy and a city girl, comin' from two different worlds
C D C
As different as day and night, but nothin's ever felt so right

The hot pavement of the city streets, the dirt roads and the muddy feet

Bringin' together the better of both worlds, a country boy and a city girl
