So Owen and I wrote this little song,
She Don't Know Where She's Goin'
Well the stage was set, so was I
The ballroom lights were down
Hank Thompson's on the jukebox
Oh, she came struttin' in
She was a honky -tonk angel
From the wild side of life
She said, I know just how to love you, boy
But I'll never make a wife
Oh, she wants to be with me tonight
She don't know where she's going
But I don't care where she's been
Well, she was a barroom dream,
She just about blew my mind
Well, it weren't her first rodeo
And that was plain to see
Yeah, but I could ride a bull
The way she's looking now at me
Yeah, she wants to be with me tonight
She don't know where she's gone
I don't care where she's been
You know what I'm talkin' about,
Well, she never had a plan,
she just lived it night by night
but, damn, she looks all right.
And I never had a chance.
She was more than I could stand.
I came here a barroom fool.
I went home a honky -tonk man.
Yeah, she wants to be with me tonight
She don't know where she's going
And I don't care where she's been
No, she don't know where she's going
I don't care where she's been
