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
