You've been lookin' for love all around the world

Baby don't you know this country girl's 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

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

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 lookin' for love all around the world

Baby don't you know this country girl's still free

Why not me

Why not me

Baby Why not me

Baby Why not me

Baby Why not me
