"Sundress" lyrics

"Sundress"

What was God thinking when he made that child
All that pretty wrapped in all that wild
Girl's poor daddy never stood no chance
She liked to drink and she love to dance
He had a shotgun shell with my name on it
I had a fast Firebird with some flames on it

And we snuck off just around midnight
Threw a little red dust in the tail lights
Drove far enough to get real close
Pulled off on a no-name road
I still think about her now and then
How the night looked on her skin
Ain't never seen a sunset like
Her sundress setting in the moonlight

What was she thinking when she pulled that strap
Off her shoulder looking back like that?
She was so warm and the grass so cold
I never had but I never let her know
She had a gold class ring with my name on it
It was one of those know you're never gonna be the same moments

And we snuck off just around midnight
Threw a little red dust in the tail lights
Drove far enough to get real close
Pulled off on a no-name road
I still think about her now and then
How the night looked on her skin
Ain't never seen a sunset like
Her sundress setting in the moonlight

Yeah, part of my poor heart never left
Her starlight summer night silhouette

And we snuck off just around midnight
Threw a little red dust in the tail lights
Drove far enough to get real close
Pulled off on a no-name road
I still think about her now and then
How the night looked on her skin
Ain't never seen a sunset like
Her sundress setting in the moonlight
Setting in the moonlight
