I followed her around,
CI was quite naive.
F(add9)Holes in my soul,
I wore my heart upon my sleeve.
FDown that winding country road,
AmDespite the stories I'd been told.
Now I don't go into town,
CSince I followed her around.
F(add9)
I stood and watched in disbelief,
CFrom the shadows of my grief.
She wore lipstick black as coal,
CAnd her boots up to her knees.
FHow could I even speak my mind,
All the boys were making time.
FI bowed my head without a sound,
CSince I followed her around.

Everybody's got a hunger,
And a seed they gotta sow.
GI should have listened to my mother,
F Am DWhen she cried 'no, child no.
Son get your feet back on the ground,
CDon't go follow her around'.
I watched her from afar,
CThat pretty flower in mid bloom.
F(add9)Oh how that girl could work a bar,
As she waltzed around the room.
FI couldn't take it anymore,
AmTried to get her out the door.
One more time she shot me down,
CSince I followed her around.
Everybody's got a hunger,
F CAnd a seed they gotta sow.
GI should have listened to my mother,
When she cried 'no, child no.
FSon get your feet back on the ground,
CDon't go follow her around'.
F Am G F Am G
Now I'm old and wise,
CStill got that sparkle in my eyes.
F(add9)All my kids have come and gone,
All except my youngest son.
FIt was just the other day,
AmI swore I heard him say:
Dad I'm heading in to town...
CI think he follows her around.
FDad I'm heading in to town...
I think he follows her around.
FDad I'm rolling in to town...
G Bb CI think he follows her around.
