many times i've been told
that old gal ain't got no soul
all the men say she's mean
that side of her i ain't ever seen
she's my little butterbean
the cutest thing you've ever seen
she's my little butterbean
well i met her down around san antone
those local boys left her alone
they all said she was the devil's one and only child
there ain't one thing i've ever heard
that'll never change the way i feel
that girl's got me head over heels
she's my little butterbean
the cutest thing you've ever seen
she's my little butterbean
she's my little butterbean
the cutest thing you've ever seen
she's my little butterbean
my little lonestar hootchie-coo
well i've chased her to timbuktu
she's gone from fort worth to abilene
and every roadhouse in-between
she's as hot as cakes on a griddle
that girl goes wild when the bow hits the fiddle
she loves to swing and do-se-do
she's my little butterbean
the cutest thing you've ever seen
she's my little butterbean
she's my little butterbean
the cutest thing you've ever seen
she's my little butterbean
