Ronnie Milsap - True Believer (Edited version) lyrics

Kickin' at the gravel in the parking lot Runnin' cross the street to the record shop Talkin' to my buddy 'bout some hip-hop tune Hotter than a firework and it's still June Sun's about to burn itself right outta the sky Guess we'll all be lucky if we don't fry And the preacher's baptizing at the river bend Wash the dust off of Dixie start all over again It was Saturday night and I swore I'd never leave her We had the Hossman blastin' on the radio receiver They say history plays tricks she's a real deceiver She gave me something from her heart back then Made me a true believer Yeah, and I believed every little word we said Whisper through the sycamores in my head Did we really drive her daddy's truck across Dry Creek Well, my hands started shakin' as my knees went weak Then we pulled back in the woods and shut the headlights off Aw, girl how'd you ever get your hair so soft I can't see what I'm doin' don't know if I should I can't see what I'm doin' Lord it sure feels good It was Saturday night and I swore I'd never leave her We had the Hossman blastin' on the radio receiver They say history plays tricks she's a real deceiver She gave me something from her heart back then Made me a true believer I'm a true believer and I'm lookin' for a sign That she can still hear this heart of mine Beatin' to the rhythm of the rock and roll I'm a true believer that the girl's got soul Now I'm back in Alabama by that river bend Where that preacher's baptizing his flock again Now we had some bad times and a little luck And her daddy gave us that old pick-up truck And we drove it on up to Birmingham And we bought ourselves a pair of matching wedding bands Hey Lord, that was almost twenty-eight years ago And we still got the Hossman on the radio It was Saturday night and I swore I'd never leave her We had the Hossman blastin' on the radio receiver They say history plays tricks she's a real deceiver She gave me something from her heart back then Made me a true believer True Believer A true believer She made me a true believer Yes, I'm a true believer...
