Belle of the Ball ©
by Lost on the Metro™ 2020
Wall of water creeping up the levee
rebar, cords and twine
just your style you were mine
one more foot to floor mile
You were belle of the ball You charmed us all
running on luck in a broke down, 3-seater truck
Knee deep in Iowa loam Down to earth, you felt like home
running on luck in a broke down, 3-seater truck
Knee Deep Knee Deep Oooooooo
Check her oil slam down the hood
And by your side my God did we ride
that truck on gravel sound
You were belle of the ball
t shirt and overalls
running on luck in a broke down, 3-seater truck
Knee deep in Iowa loam
Down to earth, you felt like home
running on luck in a broke down, 3-seater truck
Knee Deep Knee Deep Ooooooo
Bein with you was natural as dyin is to cryin
And watching you fall It broke us all
you’ll never leave this town never comin down
You were belle of the ball
You charmed us all
running on luck in a broke down, 3-seater truck
Knee deep in Iowa loam
Down to earth, you felt like home
running on luck in a broke down, 3-seater truck
Knee Deep Knee Deep Ooooooo
Knee Deep Knee Deep Ooooooo
