[Verse 1]
Colorado has a hilltop
And it looks o'er the land
When my sweet pea
Hold my heart's key
In the palm of her hand
[Pre-Chorus]
She doesn't know it but she's the one
She's always sittin' in the mornin' sun
I told my friends before the year is done
I'll be headin' out west, dead on the run
To my
[Chorus]
Country Pie
I'm gonna marry you by and by
I said I will
Leave a ladder on your windowsill
(Ah-ah)
Country Pie
I'm gonna marry you by and by
A wedding ring
I wouldn't miss it for anything
[Verse 2]
She's a Longhorn
Keeps my feet warm
On a cold winter's day
I just lay back
In the haystack
And let time slip away
[Pre-Chorus]
Life in the city is a nasty scene (Nasty scene)

[Chorus]
Country Pie
I'm gonna marry you by and by
Said I will
Leave a ladder on your window sill
(Ah-ah)
Country Pie
I'm gonna marry you by and by
A wedding ring
I wouldn't miss it for anything
[Sax Solo]
[Outro]
Country Pie
I'm gonna marry you by and by
Said I will
Leave a ladder on your window sill
(Ah-ah)
Country Pie
I'm gonna marry you by and by
A wedding ring
I wouldn't miss it for anything
Country Pie
I'm gonna marry you by and by
Said I would
Tie a ribbon on your pickup hood
(Ah-ah)
Country Pie
I'm gonna marry you by and by
