While we were pickin' in a honky-tonk in Austin
This girl came up and bought the band a round
I said, "Can we play somethin' for you, darlin',
"Before we give last call and shut this old bar down?"
Then she asked, "Can you play me 'Whiskey River'?"
I turned around and said, "Boys, kick her off in 'A'."
And I did my best impersonation for her
And that one performance stole her heart away
But I think she only loves me for my Willie
Somethin' 'bout my Willie turns her on
It's not all that extraordinary, really
But it's better than my Haggard and my Jones
It's a little thing and you might think it's silly
But you can bet it's always on her mind
I think she only loves me for my Willie
She keeps askin' for my Willie all the time
We got in my truck and headed out for breakfast
And I stuck in my Willie... CD
You'd have thought that I was drivin' in a Lexus
The way she scooted over and snuggled up to me
I said, "Honey, can you tell me why you're with me?"
She thought about it hard, and then she said,
"It's just your personality that gets me."
But the naked truth kept poundin' in my head
Yeah, I think she only loves me for my Willie
Somethin' 'bout my Willie turns her on
It's not all that extraordinary, really
But it's better than my Haggard and my Jones
It's a little thing and you might think it's silly
But you can bet it's always on her mind
I think she only loves me for my Willie
She keeps askin' for my Willie all the time
Well, she begged me not to go on the road again
And leave her blue eyes cryin' in the rain
She swears that these four walls would drive her crazy
If I go out there singin' for all
The girls I've ever loved before again
Oh, I think she only loves me for my Willie
Somethin' 'bout my Willie turns her on
It's not all that extraordinary, really
But it's better than my Haggard and my Jones
It's a little thing and you might think it's silly
But you can bet it's always on her mind
I think she only loves me for my Willie
She keeps askin' for my Willie all the time
All the time... all the time
She keeps beggin' for my Willie all the time
And I give it to her
