She Flew The Coupe - Dan Seals

Sittin' in a bar room

Joplin, Missouri

Texas on my mind

Got no way to get there

Got no need to hurry

All I got is my time

In walks a lady

Heart be still!

In walks a lady with a Coupe de Ville

She asked for someone new

To ride Tulsa way

She said she had to be there

Yesterday

Said I need a ride

A little further south

She said «Climb on in, boy

Just shut your mouth»

Mmmm, Let me tell you, brother

She flew the coupe (coupe, coupe)

Let me tell you, brother

She flew the coupe (coupe, coupe)

Could have been eighty, ninety, or a hundred

A woman that fast, she don’t need a number

About a half an hour in

I turned on the radio

I caught a little bit of news

About a lady you know

There was somethin' 'bout gun play

And a car she took

Satisfactory conditions

For throwin' the book

I looked to my left (to my left, to my left)

Heart be still!

I was looking at the lady with the Coupe de Ville

She said, «Back in Missouri

A man owed a little debt

It wasn’t over money

But she took what she could get.»

«She was in the driver’s seat

She never looked back.»

And I was ridin' shotgun

In a Cadillac

Mmmm, Let me tell you, brother

She flew the coupe (coupe, coupe)

Let me tell you, brother

She flew the coupe (coupe, coupe)

Could have been eighty, ninety, or a hundred

A woman that fast, she don’t need a number

Mmmm, Let me tell you, brother

She flew the coupe (coupe, coupe)

Let me tell you, brother

She flew the coupe (coupe, coupe)

Could have been eighty, ninety, or a hundred

A woman that fast, she don’t need a number

Yeah, go on baby
