Another Poem - was in the mood to write one day

Takin a walk on the back roads
Dressed in Friday best and my cowboy hat
Off to the carnival and the dance floor
Doin the two-step while the dog barked in tow

It was ladies' choice as I was leavin
Folks hootin and hollerin, I made my way
There she was, 'tween me and the door
She asked me for one dance

Perty girl like that, howd'ya say no
She smelled like mama's bread as she
Put her head on my chest
I had to give'er a chance

She aint no high maintenance woman
Makes me a better man
I remember that night I wore Friday best
So glad I didn't say no
