Lyrics
SHE WAS PRETTY WOMAN

YOU WERE BY THE SQUARE ON THE FOURTH OF JULY, HAVIN' SOME BAR-B-QUE
I KNEW I COULD GO FOR YOU, ...WAY TOO CUTE TO LOSE
I WAS ON A YELLOW MOTORCYCLE, YA' HAD YOUR MOJO ON
LOOKIN' SO ENTITLED, LOOKIN' SO OH-OH-OH
CHORUS
SHE WAS "PRETTY WOMAN", ...AND I WAS JAMES DEAN
HEADED ON A ROAD TO NOWHERE, ON A FLYIN' MACHINE
DON'T KNOW HOW THIS HAPPENED, NEVER FELT SO FREE
ON A YELLOW MOTORCYCLE, ...JUST OUT OF ABILENE
SHE WAS "PRETTY WOMAN", ...AND I WAS JAMES DEAN
IT CAME LIKE SUDDEN LIGHTNING, NO MOONLIT NIGHT
THERE'S A SPARK I'M FEELIN', CAUSE SHE WAS DYNAMITE
SHE HOPPED ON AND ASKED ME, ... "WHERE WE GOIN' ON THIS RIDE?"
IN CUT OFF JEANS AND TEE TOP, "PRETTY WOMAN" AT MY SIDE
CHORUS
SHE WAS "PRETTY WOMAN", ...AND I WAS JAMES DEAN
HEADED ON A ROAD TO NOWHERE, ...ON A FLYIN' MACHINE
DON'T KNOW HOW THIS HAPPENED, NEVER FELT SO FREE
ON A YELLOW MOTORCYCLE, ...JUST OUT OF ABILENE
SHE WAS "PRETTY WOMAN", ...AND I WAS JAMES DEAN
BRIDGE
SOME DAY WE'LL GO TO MARFA, AND SEE WHAT WE CAN FIND
HAVE LUNCH OUT IN THE DESERT, HAVE A GLASS OF RED WINE
FEELIN' LIKE THE 80'S, MAYBE NINETEEN EIGHTY-THREE
ON A SCENIC ROAD TO NOWHERE, CRUISIN' HIGHWAY SEVENTEEN
CHORUS
SHE WAS "PRETTY WOMAN", OH-OH-OH
SHE WAS "PRETTY WOMAN", OH-OH-OH
SHE WAS "PRETTY WOMAN", ...AND I WAS JAMES DEAN
HEADED ON A ROAD TO NOWHERE, ...ON A FLYIN' MACHINE
DON'T KNOW HOW THIS HAPPENED, NEVER FELT SO FREE
ON A YELLOW MOTORCYCLE, ...JUST OUT OF ABILENE
SHE WAS "PRETTY WOMAN", ...AND I WAS JAMES DEAN
OH-OH-OH
