Sometimes I think what turned her on Was my old broke down boots She wanted her a real cowboy It was a phase she was goin' through Not one week after she moved in I caught her paintin' the bedroom blue Brought home a bottle of pink chablis Poured out my best home brew I was sittin' on the porch in my overalls As she packed her things to leave She changed her mind when she couldn't change me She changed direction - Headed out west She changed her tune to some hip-hop mess Her dark brown hair went to blonde And her pretty blue eyes went to green She changed everything when she couldn't change me She was sittin' beside the ocean Lookin' out at the waves Watchin' how they keep on rollin' They always seem the same She called and said she'd been thinkin' about All those quiet country nights And whatever she thought was so wrong with me Suddenly seemed alright I was sittin' on the porch in my overalls When her truck came into view She said, "I changed my mind when I couldn't change you" She changed direction - Headed back home She changed her tune - It's all Haggard and Jones Had her dark brown hair pulled back And the bluest eyes you ever seen She changed her mind when she couldn't change me She changed direction - She's back in my arms She thought it through - Had a change of heart She said, "I guess when you love someone you just gotta let it be" She changed her mind when she couldn't change me Yeah, yeah... She changed it all when she couldn't change me She couldn't change me ©Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.
