Hard To Tell

Now the way things look around this town Better find a pretty woman before the sun goes down If you need a place to lay your head Find a pretty little woman in a pretty big bed You make like a fool, you stumble around Better find you a woman before you buy another round In like a lamb and out like a lion One minute your laughin' the next you're cryin' It's hard to tell, hard to tell You gotta get a woman, it's hard to tell Can't be sure, can't be sure Is she gonna be your pretty little girl? Your pretty little girl Better cut your hair, comb that mop Shine them shoes, wear tails and top Trim that 'stache, don't be slow You gonna need it where you got to go Hit that trail ride that roan And buck that limb when you get her back home Buckle up boys don’t think twice And love that woman with all your might It's hard to tell, hard to tell You gotta get a woman, it's hard to tell Can't be sure, can't be sure Is she gonna be your pretty little girl? Your pretty little girl Now she don't call and she don't write You're home with your mother every Saturday night You see her on the town, she don't see you You oughta quit courtin' and take up booze You gotta make it look like a big fortune, Got Calico shorts and alligator shoes There ain’t no woman gonna waste her time, Waiting for a poor boy to drag her down It's hard to tell, hard to tell You gotta get a woman, it's hard to tell Can't be sure, can't be sure Is she gonna be your pretty little girl?
