I Was Blown Away

You drove up in your pickup truck

That hot september day

Not a wisp of wind in the parking lot

But honey i was blown away

And later on that fall at the dixie mall

When i didn't know what to say

I seen hide nor hair of no dynamite

But honey i was blown away

(chorus)

Big sister said "you'd better watch out"

I slammed the door and said

"you don't know what you're talikng about

Mama said i sang when the telephone rang

And she called out "honey, it's ray"

Like a piece of dust on a four lane road

Honey i was blown away

I'm talikng 'bout smithereens

Just you in a pair of jeans

Now i know what crazy means

(repeat chorus)

Then on a tuesday night daddy said

"some guy's on the porch with a big bouquet"

You stood there with your slicked-back hair

And honey i was blown away

And when we slippe out back

Across the railroad track

And you softly touched my face

Well i never did feel a train go by

But honey i was blown away

No i vever did feel a train go by

But honey i was blown away
