In a little Dance Hall just outside of Dallas I dropped my drink when she came walking by By the time I got a grip She slipped through my fingertips and left me with my big mouth open wide.. (nc) I should've asked her faster But I waited too long In a red hot minute Like a flash she was gone I didn't get her number I never got her name A natural disaster I should've asked her faster. Verse 2: (same as Verse 1) She was talking to a cowboy in the corner My one last chance to ask her on the floor And just when I got the nerve I got just what I deserved As I watched him waltzin her right out the door Bridge Well there she goes, I just missed Don't take no rocket scientist To figure out, when I go home I'll be going there all alone.
