The Girl In The Corner Lyrics


I said howdy there lady, this sure is some party
I've never seen anything like this before
She said howdy there honey it's just barely started
If you think this is something just stand here some moreThen she looked at me, then she laughed at me
Then she lifted her glass to me and the rest they say is historyI said that girl in the corner, she looks so pretty
Oh, the girls all around her, she makes 'em look plain
Lady I need a drink, can I bring you another
I'm hoping these bubbles, they might know her nameWell she looked at me then she laughed at me
Then she handed her glass to me and the rest they say is historyBut when I returned champagne in my hands
There stood two strangers, where we both did stand
And the lady was gone and the evening wore on
And the girl in the corner was never aloneBut she looked at me then she smiled at me
Then she turned her eyes away from me and the rest they say is historyTim, he was tall and Susan was smart
And Francis she looked like a fine work of art
Melissa was sad but that made her sweet
And Dan and Elaine had the world at their feetDebra had Pliny, Lisa had Tony
And the girl in the corner she could've had anybody
Richard was cool and Tubb he was funny

And the tarot card lady she had everyone's moneySo I said my goodbyes when it came time to leave
And as I walked out someone pulled at my sleeve
She said honey we never did officially meet
But I sure am happy you cameShe said that girl in the corner she's more than pretty
And man you're not the first to look over her way
But if you still wanted I could introduce you
But you never will be the sameThen she looked at me
Then she laughed at me
Then she extended her hand to me
And the rest they say is histroy

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Lyle Lovett is an americana singer-songwriter and actor from Klein, Texas, who has been described as "the thinking man's cowboy". While typically associated with the alt-country genre, his albums typically incorporate folk, swing, blues, jazz and gospel music as well as more traditional country & western styles. The Night's Lullaby Songfacts reports that after twenty-six years with Curb, Lyle Lovett released his eleventh and last album for the record label, Release Me, on February 28, 2012. The record is mainly made up of covers that Lovett has played, but never got round to recording.

The four-time Grammy winner has acted in a number of films and been a guest-star on television. Lovett was married to actress Julia Roberts for a short time in the mid-1990s. In 2002, he was gored by a bull while working on his uncle's farm in Texas, but soon recovered and resumed touring.
