Just Enough Ashland City - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Well I don’t know how I found her

Love works in mysterious ways

Well I could hardly afford a cup of coffee back then

Weren’t exactly my salad days

She knew I was just pretending

To be some kind of big shot

It took her two hours to tell a little something about 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

Doin' 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 might’ve 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

But Lord didn’t she look pretty

Swimming out of those bell bottom jeans

She was just enough Ashland City

And that’s more than I’d ever seen

That was fifteen years ago

Nothing much has changed

Well I still try to play the big shot yeah and she’s still dressing strange

She still has a hard time

Telling you about herself

So let me tell you a little about the woman I love

'Cause 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 ol' boy hanging around

Lord don’t she look pretty

In an evening gown or jeans

She’s just enough Ashland City

That’s just enough woman for me
