The female form is a thing of beauty
Story behind the song
Having a couple of beers in a Honky Tonk with George Jones' guitar player. He made a typical guy comment about the waitresses great ass. I said, "I ordered another round just to watch her walk away." Went home and wrote the song.
Lyrics
YOU’VE GOT A GREAT ASS
V. I ordered one more drink, just to watch her walk away
When she came back, she accidentally dropped her tray
When she bent over, I stared till I was blind
She slapped my face, I said wait, I can tell you why
CHORUS You’ve got a great ass
Ain’t no doubt about it
You’ve got a great ass
Here’s looking at it
V. I WIPED THE GRIN FROM MY FACE, AND SHOOK THE BEER OFF MY JEANS
I ASKED HER IF SHE’D TURN AROUND, AND SHED SOME LIGHT ON ME
NOW SOMEWHERE BACK IN YOUR PAST, THERE MUST BE A CLUE
OF WHO WOULD DARE GIVE THAT DERRIERE TO YOU
CHORUS
BRIDGE ALL I WANT TO DO IS TAKE A LOOK AT YOU
IN HUMBLE ADMIRATION FOR YOUR NATURAL BEAUTY
AND TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TELL YOU
WHAT YOU’RE DOIN’ TO ME
V. WHEN IT WAS TIME TO LEAVE, I LEFT HER A BIG TIP
I WROTE ACROSS A C-NOTE, I WANT YOU TO KNOW THIS
I HOPE YOU’RE NOT OFFENDED BY THE WAY I LOOK AT YOU
I’M JUST SHOWIN’ MY APPRECIATION FOR THE GORGEOUS VIEW
CHORUS
