I Was Blown Away - The Hit Co.
You drove up in your pickup truck
That hot September day
Not a wisp of wind in the parking lot
But honey, I was blown away
And later on that fall at the Dixie mall
When I didn't know what to say
I seen hide nor hair of no dynamite
But honey, I was blown away
Big sister said, "You'd better watch out"
I slammed my door and said
"You don't know what you're talking about"
Mama said, I sang when the telephone rang
And she called out, "Honey, its Ray"
And like a piece of dust on a four lane road
Honey, I was blown away
I'm talking about smithereens
Just you in a pair of jeans
Now I know what crazy means
Big sister said, "You'd better watch out"
I slammed my door and said
"You don't know what you're talking about"
Then one Tuesday night daddy said
"Some guys on the porch with a big bouquet"
And as you stood out there with
Your slicked back hair
I was blown away
And when we slipped out back across
The railroad track
And you softly touched my face
Well I never did feel a train go by
But honey, I was blown away
Well I never did feel a train go by
But I was blown away
