Bowlegged Woman - Pokey LaFarge

On a sunny September’s day, out in Tennessee where we were booked to play

Light shone down on a little dance floor, I seen a woman I never seen before

Love will hit you like a ton of bricks when a bowlegged woman starts shakin' it

Black hair and it was piled high, never seen a girl do it or even try

She buys her bobby pins by the pound just to keep that big hair down

Love will hit you like a ton of bricks when a bowlegged woman starts shakin' it

She took that thing, put it on a string, started dancin' round, movin' up and

down

Shakin' side to side, man, she was so fine

I had to beg that bowlegged woman to give me back that heart of mine

It got so hot that it began to steam, an eye candy woman like from a dream

I knew that I’d seen that girl before, down in Tennessee on a dated dance floor

Love will hit you like a ton of bricks when a bowlegged woman starts shakin' it
