Sometimes I think what turned her on was my old broke down boots   She wanted her a real cowboy it was a phase she was just goin' through   Not one week after she moved in I caught her paintin' the bedroom blue   Brought home a bottle of pink chablis poured out my best home brew   I was sittin' on the porch in my overalls as she packed her things to leave   She changed her mind when she couldn't change me      She changed direction, headed out west   Changed her tune to some hip-hop mess   Her dark brown hair went to blonde and her pretty blue eyes went to green   She changed everything when she couldn't change me      She was sittin' beside the ocean looking out at the waves   Watching how they keep on rolling but always seem the same   She called and said she'd been thinkin' about all those quiet country nights   And whatever she thought was so wrong with me suddenly seemed alright   I was sittin' on the porch in my overalls when her truck pulled into view   She said, "I changed my mind when I couldn't change you"      She changed direction, headed back home   She changed her tune it's all Haggard and Jones   Had her dark brown hair pulled back and the bluest eyes you've ever seen   She changed everything when she couldn't change me      She said, "I guess when you love someone just gotta let it be"   She changed her mind, when she couldn't change me      She changed direction, she's back in my arms   She thought it through, had a change of heart   She said, "I guess when you love someone you just gotta let it be"   She changed her mind, when she couldn't change me, yeah yeah   She changed it all when she couldn't change me   She couldn't change me, she couldn't change me
