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 didn’t know what to say
I seen hide nor hair of no dynamite
But honey I was blown away
(Chorus)
Big sister said «You’d better watch out»
I slammed the door and said
«You don’t know what you’re talkng about
Mama said I sang when the telephone rang
And she called out «Honey, it’s Ray»
Like a piece of dust on a four lane road
Honey I was blown away
I’m talikng ’bout smithereens
Just you in a pair of jeans
Now I know what crazy means
(Repeat chorus)
Then one Tuesday night Daddy said
«Some guy’s on the porch with a big bouquet»
As you stood out there with your slicked-back hair
I was blown away
And when we slipped out back
‘cross 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 never did feel a train go by
But I was blown away
