[Verse]
I met a little girl in Saskatoon
She was beaming, bold and beautiful and higher than the moon
Before I could profess, she left too soon
The words she spoke were enough to make me blue

[Chorus]
She said, I know just what you're wishing
Two folks in our condition
We'll never leave this barroom with our pride
So go about your earthly mission
Don't trust no politicians
You look to yours and I will look to mine

[Verse]
I met a Nashville honky-tonkin' queen
And the caress of her amber lips was reserved for Jim Beam
Took her by the arm, she made a scene
Whiskey was yet to dull her tongue, it seemed

[Chorus]
She said, I know just what you're wishing
Two folks in our condition
We'll never leave this barroom with our pride
So go about your earthly mission
Don't trust no politicians
You look to yours and I will look to mine
[Verse]
Out west, by God, Virginia's where I'm bound
She's as wild, she's as wonderful as any girl I've found
So keep me just as long as I'm around
I never have to hear that awful sound

[Chorus]
Well, I know just what you're wishing
Two folks in our condition
We'll never leave this barroom with our pride
So go about your earthly mission
Don't trust no politicians
You look to yours and I will look to mine
You look to yours and I will look to mine
