Texty: Ernest Tubb. Don't She Look Good.
She was on her way out of your life
When I found her not knowing which way to turn
She's forgotten the feeling of two arms around her
But it didn't take her long to learn
You had new worlds to conquer so you didn't want her
Or anything cramping your style
But don't she look great in the new dress I bought her
And don't she look good when she smiles
Did you really think you were so all important
She couldn't get by on her own?
Did you really think losing you would destroy her
And that's why she kept hanging on
She stuck to her promise and talked to her conscious
She did all she could for a while
Then picked up the pieces and she started livin'
Now don't she look good when she smiles
Don't she look good in the new dress I bought her
And the new way that she wears her hair
She's in a new world and she's not the same girl
She knows now that somebody cares
You can't believe that the same girl you let go
Could change so in this little while
But don't she look great in the new dress I bought her
And don't she look good when she smiles
Now don't she look great in the new dress I bought her
And don't she look good when she smiles
When I found her not knowing which way to turn
She's forgotten the feeling of two arms around her
But it didn't take her long to learn
You had new worlds to conquer so you didn't want her
Or anything cramping your style
But don't she look great in the new dress I bought her
And don't she look good when she smiles
Did you really think you were so all important
She couldn't get by on her own?
Did you really think losing you would destroy her
And that's why she kept hanging on
She stuck to her promise and talked to her conscious
She did all she could for a while
Then picked up the pieces and she started livin'
Now don't she look good when she smiles
Don't she look good in the new dress I bought her
And the new way that she wears her hair
She's in a new world and she's not the same girl
She knows now that somebody cares
You can't believe that the same girl you let go
Could change so in this little while
But don't she look great in the new dress I bought her
And don't she look good when she smiles
Now don't she look great in the new dress I bought her
And don't she look good when she smiles
