Make-Up and Faded Blue Jeans Lyrics

Imagine that..another Merle song...This one's also >from the CD Merle
Haggard, His Best, MCA Records...Ah Downtown Modesto...gotta love it!
MAKEUP AND FADED BLUE JEANS (Merle Haggard) (CAPO 1)
* = DUET
In downtown Modesto I was workin' the Holiday Inn
I was set with a gig that would last us thoughout the weekend
I was signing a new song I wrote on the way into town
When she came in the front door I found her a place to sit down
Hey I knew right away that she liked the words to my song
Cause she stared at the guitar followed my fingers too long
And she had the likeness of a girl I'd seen in a dream
But lights can do wonders with makeup and faded blue jeans
* And the last thing I needed was somebody messin' up my mind
So I found a hundred reasons for lookin' away one more time
She could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love with guitars
And to blow all my chances at bein' a big singin' star
And then on the other hand (then on the other hand what?)
With one passin' glance I could tell she was young for her age
Yeah she got to lookin' better as she got down closer to the stage
And as she sipped on her wine I knew just the kind she would be
And somehow I knew she was here to do bad things to me
* And the last thing I needed was somebody messin' up my mind
So I found a hundred reasons for lookin' away one more time
She could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love with guitars
And to blow all my chances at bein' a big singin' star (1 PROGRESSION)
I was right....she could cause me to sing bad and fall out of love with guitars
And blow all my chances at bein' a big singin' star
