Lyrics
Almost all of my life, every day and every night
The only thing that I could think of
Was doing all I could do to find me a true blue
A foxy little lady to love
I looked uptown, downtown, looking all around town
Searching and trying so hard
Looking for the right face, looking in the wrong place
I should've looked in my backyard
'Cause I found everything I was looking for
When I fell in love with the pretty little girl next door
She went away to college to get herself some knowledge
She just got back a month ago
She had changed a whole lot, I found out she was not
That little girl I used to know
That little freckle-faced tomboy used to make a lot of noise
Running 'round the neighborhood
Was sitting on the front porch in a pair of short shorts
Buddy, she was looking good
I got all I want, I'll never ask for more
When I fell in love with the pretty little girl next door
We're gonna move way out to a little bitty town
Where the living is nice and slow
Where they ain't got nothing but a general store
One street and a picture show
I hope we have a little boy, gonna be my pride and joy
Raise him by the golden rule
Watch him while he grows tall, fishing poles and football
Apple pie and Sunday school
So goodbye bright lights, single bars and wild nights
Goodbye, all you partying girls
You can't find what I got in honky tonks and night spots
And I wouldn't trade it for the world
Tell the boys at the hideaway, I hope they had a nice day
Tell 'em all I said goodbye
I would've dropped around, but I'm going out of town
And besides, I've got a ring to buy
So long, old friend, I'm a-headed out the door
With my blue-eyed, ever-loving pretty little girl next door
The girl next door
I got all I want, I'll never ask for more
When I fell in love with the pretty little girl next door
I said the girl next door
I'm talkin' 'bout the girl, that foxy little girl
That pretty little girl next door
I'm talkin' 'bout the girl, that foxy little girl
That pretty little girl next door
I said I'm talkin' 'bout the girl, that foxy little girl
That pretty little girl next door
I'm talkin' 'bout the girl, that foxy little girl
That pretty little girl next door
