Prairie Girl
Rock 'n' Roll Love in the Heartland: Prairie Girl's Tale
Lyrics
I've been around, had my ups and my downs
Experienced various situations, highs, and lows
Took my share and paid my dues
Faced challenges and fulfilled obligations
Went to bed with a dream in my head
Went to sleep with aspirations or ambitions
And woke up with the bad boy blues
Woke up feeling regretful or downhearted
But when you're gamblin' all of the time
Constantly taking risks or chances
Don't matter if you win or lose
Outcomes of those risks don't matter anymore
And I ain't never been shy so I don't know why
Confident, not typically reserved, but feeling unusual shyness
I'm standing talking to your shoes
Feeling low or embarrassed
I guess it's 'cause oh, I love you so
Expressing deep affection for someone
You thrill me like a Tilt-o-Whirl
Comparing the thrill of love to an amusement park ride
With your heart-stoppin', jaw-droppin' big sky love
Describing the intensity of affection for the prairie girl
My pretty little prairie girl
Endearment for the girl from the prairie
Rogue males and old lone wolves
Referring to independent, uncontrollable individuals
Ain't much for self control
Not inclined to restrain themselves
They sleep with one foot in your bed
Metaphorically discussing their lack of commitment
The other headin' for the door
Always ready to leave or escape commitment
Feet get cold and hearts they can freeze
Expressing emotional detachment
In the dark nights of your soul
Referring to difficult times in life
But I don't care who disagrees
Not concerned with others' opinions about falling in love
Falling in love is totally rock 'n' roll
Love is compared to the essence of rock 'n' roll
And I say oh, I love you so
Continuing to express deep affection for someone
And when my flag unfurls
Symbolic reference to permanent commitment
There'll be a heart tattoo with a picture of you
Symbolic representation of dedication to the prairie girl
My pretty little prairie girl
Reaffirmation of affection towards the prairie girl
In the rain those trains and planes
Travel experiences and reflections
They took me all around this world
Traveling extensively
But all that steel and chrome made me think about home
Feeling nostalgic about home
My fingers running through your curls
Longing for intimacy with the prairie girl
I say oh, I love you so
Continued expression of deep affection
And there's one thing I'm sure
Confident in the strength of feelings
I'd crawl a thousand miles just to see that smile
Expressing willingness to go great distances for love
My pretty little prairie girl
Reiteration of affection for the prairie girl
And I say oh, I love you so
Reaffirmation of intense love and positivity
And it ain't such a dark old world
Optimistic outlook due to love
I see the future rise in the light of your eyes
Seeing a bright future with the prairie girl
My pretty little prairie girl
Endearment towards the prairie girl
