She rolled into town aboard a box car last night
Auburn hair shining beneath the moon so bright
Her shoulders were broad, and her jaw was quite square
But I swear I fell in love right there
I asked her to dance and she gave me her hand
I'd only seen mitts that big on a man
She drew me in close as we started to sway
And whispered that she'd rather lead the way
I think I found a woman
One I can call my wife
She'll be by my side, for the rest of this ride
Who could want more out of life
I asked for her name and where she was from
Said her name was Daryl and she was on the run
She'd stirred up some trouble with the sheriff back home
And had taken to riding the rails all alone
She leaned in to kiss me and that's when I saw
The five o'clock shadow that was lining her jaw
Ignoring my gut I pushed all my chips in
My life would never be the same again
I think I found a woman
One I can call my wife
She'll be by my side, for the rest of this ride
Who could want more out of life
It turns out that Daryl was a man all along
This act as a woman was simply a con
But the love that we shared was as real as can be
Tonight I'll ask Daryl to marry me
I think I found a woman
One I can call my wife
She'll be by my side, for the rest of this ride
Who could want more out of life
