Cotton County Queen Lyrics

    (wally wilson/sam hogin/phil barnhart)

    My baby came and got me in her mama's cadillac
    We went parkin' by the river near the honeydew patch
    She started talkin' 'bout the birds and the bees
    My mind ran wild with the possibilities
    Like rhett and scarlett climbin' up the stairs
    We were on our way to heaven in the melons out there

    She was the centerfold picture in a country boy's dream
    Prettiest thing i ever had seen
    Tupelo honey in a pair of blue jeans
    The upper mississippi delta cotton county queen

    She had a judge for a daddy, he made her tow the line
    Brother he was tougher than a year of hard time
    He came by and caught us rollin' in the weeds
    Said "boy get goin' if you're ever gonna leave"
    I took off runnin' out of that place
    All the while thinkin' 'bout her beautiful face

    She was the centerfold picture in a country boy's dream
    Prettiest thing i ever had seen
    Tupelo honey in a pair of blue jeans
    The upper mississippi delta cotton county queen

    Snuck up to the house in the heat of the night
    Hid in the hedge 'til they turned out the lights
    Tapped on the windows said "darlin' let's go"
    And we were gone with the wind in her el dorado

    She was the centerfold picture in a country boy's dream
    Prettiest thing i ever had seen
    Tupelo honey in a pair of blue jeans
    The upper mississippi delta cotton county queen

    Yeah she's the cerfold picture in a country boy's dream
    The upper mississippi delta cotton county queen
    Upper mississippi, delta cotton county queen
