The Old Time Country Show
Words & Music: Pat Drummond

She never was one of those pretty ones
All of her girlfriends married young
She knew by the time she was thirty-one
She'd be livin' her life alone.
He never was one of those flashy types
Steady job; stayed home at night
Resigned by the time he was thirty-five
to livin' all on his own.

But Love can come to anyone;
You never really know
Roger met Betty on a Saturday night, at the Old Time Country Show.

Now all of the young blades called him Pop; greying hair; thin on top
He lived at the back of the corner shop; and slept all on his own
She never was one of your fashion plates, two or three pounds overweight
It had something to do with those cakes she ate, on the nights she spent alone.

But Love can come to anyone, you never really know
Gary met Jenny on a Saturday night at the Old Time Country Show.

Down at the old time country show, You can sing and dance and say "hello"
And somebody that you hardly know will hold you in their arms
At the one and only Old Time Country Show.

Now I guess I was always a little shy
Fame and fortune passed me by
But I'm goin' down to that dance tonite
Goin' all on my own
And maybe someone who looks just like you
Will dance with someone lonely too
And later on, if it's alright by you,
I could even walk you home.

For Love can come to anyone, You never really know
Maybe I'll fall in love with you, at the Old Time Country Show.
