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 the 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, it's Ray'
Like a piece of dust on a four lane road
Honey, I was blown away

I'm talking 'bout 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 on a Tuesday night daddy said
'Some guy's on the porch with a big bouquet'
You stood there with your slicked-back hair
And honey, 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

No, I never did feel a train go by
But honey, I was blown away
