[Verse 1]
I’m a good ol’ boy from Mobile, Alabama,
Got mud on my boots and a dip in my can-a.
Wearin’ my best jeans, pressed for the day,
Groomsman at a weddin’, gotta walk the right way.
She’s a New York gal, all fancy and fine,
High heels so tall, she’s stumblin’ in the pine.
Her nose in the air, sippin’ wine, not sweet tea,
Thinks a barn dance is some kinda travesty.
[Chorus]
Oh, country groomsman, city bridesmaid,
I saw her eyes, and my heart got waylaid.
She’s all Fifth Avenue, I’m a dirt road rambler,
But love at first sight’s got us both in a scramble.
She’s stuck-up, I’m country, we’re worlds apart,
But them sparks started flyin’, straight to my heart.
[Verse 2]
She scoffed at my pickup, called it a disgrace,
Said, “Where’s the Uber?” with that city-girl face.
I offered her cornbread, she pushed it away,
Said, “Gluten’s my enemy,” whatever that means today.
But when the band played “Sweet Home Alabama,”
I grabbed her hand, said, “C’mon, city mama!”
She twirled in that dress, and I swear I did swoon,
Her laugh lit up brighter than a Alabama moon.
[Chorus]
Oh, country groomsman, city bridesmaid,
I saw her eyes, and my heart got waylaid.
She’s all Fifth Avenue, I’m a dirt road rambler,
But love at first sight’s got us both in a scramble.
She’s stuck-up, I’m country, we’re worlds apart,
But them sparks started flyin’, straight to my heart.
[Bridge]
She said, “This ain’t no gala, where’s the champagne?”
I said, “Darlin’, try this Mason jar, it’s the same!”
She rolled her eyes, but then she took a sip,
Next thing you know, she’s dancin’ with a dip!
I taught her the two-step, she taught me to dream,
Of a penthouse and a porch swing, crazy as it seems.
She’s caviar wishes, I’m biscuits and gravy,
But this Alabama boy’s heart, she’s already savin’.
[Chorus]
Oh, country groomsman, city bridesmaid,
I saw her eyes, and my heart got waylaid.
She’s all Fifth Avenue, I’m a dirt road rambler,
But love at first sight’s got us both in a scramble.
She’s stuck-up, I’m country, we’re worlds apart,
But them sparks started flyin’, straight to my heart.
[Outro]
Now she’s got a cowboy hat, I’m wearin’ her smile,
We’re plannin’ a weddin’, country-city style.
From Alabama fields to her big-city lights,
We fell in love at first sight, and it feels so right.
