well I don't know how I found her love works in mysterious ways I could hardly afford a cup of coffee back then weren't exactly my salad days she know took her two hours
she was just enough Ashland city she was just enough small town but lord didn't she look pretty she was just enough and buddy that's just about all it takes
a week later we got married and she was just a country she wound up showing me well I mighta known the way to San Jose but
she was just enough
take a skinnydip in that old gravel pit about 20 miles outa town
lord didn't she look pretty swimmin outta those bellbottom jeans
she was just enough a c and that's more than I'd ever seen
nothing much has changed
well I still
she still has a hard time telling you
so let me tell you
cause buddy she's something else
just enough Ashland City to wanna watch the sun go down
just enough small town shy to keep this old boy hanging around
in an evening gown or jeans
and that's just enough woman for me
Just Enough Ashland City

Well I don't know how I found her love works in mysterious ways
I could hardly afford a cup of coffee back then weren't exactly my Saturday's
She knew I was just pretending to be some kinda bigshot
It took her two hours to tell a little something 'bout herself
And that's when my heart stopped
She was just enough Ashland City to wanna watch the sun go down
She was just enough small town girl to cook my supper in an evening gown
But Lord didn't she look pretty doing that shake and bake
She was just enough Ashland City and buddy that's about all it takes
A week later we got married yeah I was gonna show her the world
Cause I was Mr. Sophisticated and she was just a country girl
She wound up showing me everything I'd ever been dreaming of
Well I mighta known the way to San Jose but I didn't know a thing about love
She was just enough Ashland City to wanna put the T-Top down
Take a skinny dip in that old gravel pit about twenty miles out of town
Lord didn't she look pretty slippin' outta those bell bottom jeans
She was just enough Ashland City and that's more than I'd ever seen
Nine months fifteen years ago nothin' much has changed
Well I still try to play the bigshot yeah, and she's still dressing strange
She still has a hard time telling you about herself
So let me tell you a little 'bout the woman I love
Hey buddy she's something else
She's just enough Ashland City to wanna watch the sun go down
Just enough small town shy to keep this old boy hanging around
Lord don't she look pretty in an evening gown or jeans
She's just enough Ashland City and that's just enough woman for me
