| They fell in love in plaid & calico plaid & calico plaid & calico
|
| They fell in love in plaid & calico
|
| Like the good old fashioned days of long ago
|
| It all began at a country dance affair
|
| All the neighbourhood was there
|
| There was laughter ev rywhere
|
| A lonesome cowboy came upon the scene
|
| And met a gal in calico, the answer two or three
|
| (They danced all night in plaid & calico plaid & calico plaid & calico
|
| They danced all night in plaid & calico)
|
| While the fiddles played the music country style
|
| It wasn t long till the two were altar bound
|
| And the folks for miles around, all proceeded into town
|
| And while the organ played a wedding tune
|
| The cowboy and his sweetheart were the blushing bride and groom
|
| They said, I do, in plaid & calico plaid & calico plaid & calico
|
| They said, I do, in plaid & calico
|
| And they vowed, they d never ever be untrue
|
| Now bet, your fools there as happy as can be
|
| With the great big fam ly tee
|
| Just to keep them company
|
| And when you see them coming into town
|
| It looks as though a rainbow had just tumbled to the ground
|
| For all the kids wear plaid & calico plaid & calico plaid & calico
|
| Yes, all the kids wear plaid & calico
|
| Like the good old fashioned days of long ago
|
| (They fell in love they danced all night
|
| They said, I do all dressed in plaid & calico) |
