She had to be thinkin' "This is where Rednecks come from"

C F

She had Hollywood written on her license plate

She was lost and lookin' for the interstate

Bb C F

Needin' directions and I was the man for the job

[Chorus]

I told her way up yonder past the caution light

Bb C

There's a little country store with an old Coke sign

You gotta stop in and ask Miss Bell for some of her sweet tea

Then a left will take you to the interstate

But a right will bring you right back here to me

She probably didn't like me anyhow
