It was in the town of Nashville in the year of 75 This Arizona star, she just fell out of the sky She was shining like a diamond, she had tombstones in her eyes She liked drinking she liked smoking, she liked dancing in the aisles She was a primadonna, pre-madonna, hard time southern belle Man she should have been an actress oh she played the part so well She might have been a singer, but you really couldn't really tell She was the Arizona star and she was born to give 'em hell When your cool, the sun shines all the time So she always kept her shades on to keep from going blind She was cool, She was out there so far She was nothing less and nothing more than the Arizona Star She had a girlfriend named George, George carried a sword And wore purple tights an they hung out every night Oh I'm talking bout a circus man, I'm talking bout three rings And there was four or five clowns in a washing machine Oh she never met a stranger least as far as I can tell She was the Arizona Star and Jim McGuire he knew her well She made real an oxymoron, she made mirrors she made smoke She had a curve ball that wouldn't quit and a girlfriend for a joke Chorus
