I picked her up in Denver
On a windy afternoon
Had one suitcase and a guitar
She sang a country tune
Gave her name as Carolina,
I asked her, "North?" or "South?"
She said she liked men funny.
And thanked me with her mouth..

She was the sweetest ray of sunshine
That I had ever known
We stopped and found a mattress
She thrilled me to the bone
I loved her with a passion
That hurt my heart inside
But, She Loved Andrew Jackson
And I was just a ride

Said she was bound for Nashville
To be a country star
I said, you've got the talent
I'm sure that you'll go far
When gridlocked on that freeway
Stuck in a five mile line
She sang and picked out, "Crazy"
As great as Patsy Cline..

She was the sweetest ray of sunshine
That I had ever met
And even though it's over
My heart's applauding yet
I loved her with a passion
That hurt my heart inside
But, She Loved Andrew Jackson
And I was just a ride..

Drove all the way to Memphis
And moteled for the night
She seemed a little edgy
Knew somethin' wasn't right..
I was still there in the morning
But, my cash and car were not..
On the mirror in the bathroom
She lipsticked, "Thanks a lot!"

She was the sweetest ray of sunshine
The cuteness of a pup
If she makes it big in Nashville
I might just look her up..
I loved her with a passion
That hurt my heart inside
But, She Loved Andrew Jackson
And I was just a ride..

Yes, She Loved Andrew Jackson
And I was just a ride
