italian sheets
monroe, ashley
you promised me i'd live the good life
you had everything but a good wife
we live in a mansion outside of atlanta
toast of the city of most every night
but i'm just a girl from the country
and money don't mean a thing to me
i grew up on a farm with a pond and a barn
your such a good man but i need you to see
that my feet sure do get cold on this marble
i need a pine floor that squeaks
'cause i can't stand sleepin' on these italian sheets
you keep two cooks in the kitchen
but i like to fry my own chicken
like my mama did back when i was a kid
when daddy and the boys were all fishin'
they don't feel like they're my clothes
i wear them for you but to tell you the truth i miss my t-shirt and old overalls
that my feet sure do get cold on this marble
i need a pine floor that squeaks
'cause i can't stand sleepin' on these italian sheets
and baby you know i still love you
and all that you've given to me
'cause i can't stand sleepin' on these italian sheets
on these italian sheets. ohh
