You've been lookin' for love all around the world
Baby don't you know this country girls still free
Why not me
Well you've finally come down to your old hometown

Your Kentucky girl's been waiting patiently
Why not me
(Chorus)
Why not me on a rainy day
Why not me to love your cares away
Why not me
Why not me when the nights get cold
Why not me when you're growin' old
Why not me
You've been searchin' from here to Singapore
Ain't it time that you notice the girl next door Baby
Why not me
You had to see if the world was round
It's time that you learned how good settlin' down could be
Why not me
(Repeat Chorus)
Why not me
Baby why not me
La, La, La
Oh, Baby why not me
La, La, La
Oh, Baby why not me
(Repeat and Fade)
