Jim Gegner - Doublin' Down (Demo) Lyrics

She looked just like a rodeo
But she was the kind where you don't get throwed
After eight seconds of a stare
I didn't have a prayer
It caught me out of the blue
I was wrapped inside the first glance
Like that tequila in her right hand
But still I tried to play it cool
Told her "we should take them boots for a two-step or two"
With our heartbeats in time to the rhythm of a country song
We got lost in each other 'til we heard 'em say last call
And it was like a
Bud and Sissy kind of
Country gypsy kind of wild thing
Like Keith and Lorrie we were
Writin' our own story in harmony
Our defenses were comin' unwound
We both played the hand that we'd found
We were just a couple of singles doublin' down
In that neon night we caught the heat
It was burnin' deeper than a stiff drink
We just couldn't get enough
Fit each other like a glove holdin' tight on the reins
So it should come as no surprise
That it didn't take me long to realize
Just like a cowboy needs to ride
Needed her there by my side
For the rest of my days
So I pulled a diamond from the pocket of my old jeans
And I took her hand into mine and I dropped to one knee
I said we've got this
Bud and Sissy kind of
Country gypsy kind of wild thing
Like Keith and Lorrie we've been
Writin' our own story in harmony
So let's gather the families around
Go all-in on this love we found
When we were just a couple of singles doublin' down
Looking back on those days
Still amazes me how
We ended up where we are now
From a couple of singles just doublin' down
A couple of singles doublin' down
