Did you hear about the country girl
At 30 ,000 feet over Denver, Colorado
Eating honey -roasted peanuts
on an airplane headed east
He drank his whiskey sour
and talked 90 miles an hour
She sipped her Coca -Cola
I've never been to Valdosta, Georgia
it's lovely in the spring
He said, what do people do
down in Valdosta, Georgia
and do the kids wear shoes?
We all live down on the creek bank.
There's no indoor plumbing,
and we all ride on mules.
and said, I know something better.
Come go with me to New York,
and I'll show you the town.
She said, I really must get home
But if you'll come go with me,
I'll take you to a square dance
Teach you how to milk a cow
We'll go to Sunday preaching,
eat Mama's good fried chicken
You can take me to the picture show
and I'll let you hold my hand
What do you say to that city man?
Well, the old boy took the bait the way
a small mouth takes a minnow
And when they hit Chicago,
She said, there's not an airport
that serves Valdosta, Georgia
when they landed in Valdosta
And stepped off of the plane
She poured him blended whiskey
and that's when he saw her picture
On the cover of the Playboy magazine
She said, here's what people do
down in Valdosta, Georgia
She kissed him on the earlobe,
then kissed him on the mouth
She whispered to the driver,
keep your eyes upon the highway
Turned back to her friend
and said, welcome to the South
She was more than just a country girl
who made a city slicker from Los Angeles.
At 30 ,000 feet over Denver, Colorado,
eating honey rolls and peanuts
