lyrics

PRAIRIE LEE

prairie lee, prairie lee, c'mon baby marry me
prairie lee, prairie lee, c'mon baby marry me
c'mon and be my bride, i loved you since i was
a child

in grade school i used to throw rocks at you
push you down, call you names too
in junior high when we started to date
friday nights i would bring you home late
in high school i took you to the senior prom
now we're all out of school, so baby c'mon

well your daddy puthis foot down, said i'm too damn wild
i know your mama digs me, she winks at me and smiles
just got a job i make a hundred a week, its not a whole lot
but it will keep us off the street I know we'll be happy, i've
loved you all my life, c'mon prairie lee you got to be my
wife
