Lake House

7AM out at the lake house

Sun is burnin' red up in my eyes

I can hear the chirping of the bird laugh

Last night I went to sleepin' outside

I was thinkin 'bout a girl I met a while back

I don't know her and I hardly caught her name

She's not from here and I don't know where she comes from

But I can't seem to get her off my brain

I'd like to find her and ask her to dinner

Not the kind you try for just a one night stand

Maybe sometime, take her to the lake house

Maybe sometime, ask to be her man

She was sporting cowboy boots and wearing blue jeans

Her eyes lit up the endless summer night

She listened to a song I'd been recordin'

Her smile was like a panoramic sight

I know she spends her days breakin' horses

Spinnin' country records and cowboy tunes

I heard that she's comin' down this weekend

Time to pucker up, make a move

I'd like to find her and ask her to dinner

Not the kind you try for just a one night stand

Maybe sometime, take her to the lake house

Maybe sometime, ask to be her man

Hey, I got this lake house, you should see it

It's only down the road a couple miles

I bet you'd feel like you're in Texas

I bet you'll wanna stay a while

I wanna get to know you better

Find out what lays in your darkest fire

I bet you'd feel like you're in Texas

I know you're gonna stay a while

So I said, "Would you come with me to dinner

I'm not interested at all in a one night stand

Now that you've been to see the lake house

I'm asking you if I can be your man"

Tell me, baby, can I be your man?

I'm askin' you if I can be your man
