lyrics

I was sitting in a bar after a gig in Albuquerque
Watching Johnny flirting with a model in pearls
I just got off the phone with a Finnish ballerina
But all that’s on my mind is a Missouri girl

A Missouri girl back in a dive in Kansas City
Separated from a bum without a clue in the world
I’ve wasted lots of time with some crazy little women
But I’m calling in my cards for a Missouri girl

A Missouri girl, she got a crow over her shoulder
A Missouri girl, she got a twister in her heart
Gonna cross the Shenendoah
Move the weight of the world
It’s been a long worth waiting for a Missouri girl

I don’t need no easy smile
Need no sunny disposition
What I need is every day her love I got to earn
Smell of something burning
Healthy dose of healthy tension
Don’t take nothin’ for granted with a Missouri girl

I’ve played in Montreal
Played in Omaha Nebraska
Played in big arenas
Every smoky bar in the world
You ask me what I’ve learned
I haven’t learned nothing
All I’ve learned is all I need is a Missouri girl
