Lyrics
I got a theory
Why you?re so depressed
You know too much about this world
And you look so weary
Why don?t you get some rest
You?re way to close in age
To your baby girl
And all life?s mysteries
Are solved on this bar stool tonight
A penny for your thoughts dear
Fifty cents for your dress
I get a job at the railroad
And build a lovers nest
I?d shoot the moon
Just to hear you say
That I?m your loving man
It ain?t no secret
Yer? a peach Luanne
Or could it be
Our hundred dollar wedding
Or my blue velvet borrowed tux
You couldn?t tell me
But you laughed with all your friends
About you cheap cigar band ring
And all life?s mysteries are solved
On this bar floor tonight
A penny for your thoughts dear
Fifty cents for your dress
I get a job at the railroad
And build a lovers nest
I?d shoot the moon
Just to hear you say
That I?m your loving man
It ain?t no secret
Yer? a peach Luanne
A penny for your thoughts dear
I?ll take the dress for free
And all your lovin?
If you?ll give it to me
I?d shoot the moon
Just to hear you say
That I?m your loving man
It ain?t no secret
Yer? a peach Luanne
