You drove a great big car when I met you on that rainy day
You wore a great big smile when you said am I going your way
You held a great big grudge cause I left you behind on life's highway
You wanna make me into something that would run up hard against my grain
You wanna shake me into knowing sunshine is coming with the rain
You wanna take me into sorrow, away from all my joy into your pain
But I got nothing against you gal, nothing held back on you in my mind
And I got nothing against you gal, nothing held back on you in my mind
And I got two ears that can hear whenever you get near
And two eyes that can see and two feet that can flee the loving kind
I ought to be thanking you girl for teaching me about my wayward life
Yes and I ought to be thanking you girl for offering to be my wife
But I never did agree you could cut wild oats out of me with a paring knife
And I got nothing against you gal, nothing held back on you in my mind
And I got nothing against you gal, nothing held back on you in my mind
And I got two ears that can hear whenever you get near
And two eyes that can see and two feet that can flee the loving kind
