Pam Tillis: "I Was Blown Away" Lyrics

(layng martine, jr.)



You drove up in your pickup truck

That hot september day

Not a wisp of wind in the parking lot

But honey I was blown away



And later on that fall at the dixie mall

When I didnt know what to say

I seen hide nor hair of no dynamite

But honey I was blown away



(chorus)

Big sister said youd better watch out

I slammed the door and said

You dont know what youre talikng about



Mama said I sang when the telephone rang

And she called out honey, its ray

Like a piece of dust on a four lane road

Honey I was blown away



Im talikng bout smithereens

Just you in a pair of jeans

Now I know what crazy means



(repeat chorus)



Then on a tuesday night daddy said

Some guys on the porch with a big bouquet

You stood there with your slicked-back hair

And honey I was blown away



And when we slippe out back

Across the railroad track

And you softly touched my face

Well I never did feel a train go by

But honey I was blown away



No I vever did feel a train go by

But honey I was blown away
