About five o'clock in the late afternoon sun's gettin' drowsy above me
Tonight I walk neath the sparkling moon with the girl who is happy to love me
She's my sweet country girl and she's all that I need
The whole world wears the smile when she's talking
Sweet country girl it's not hard to believe
Pretty flowers bloom wherever she's been walking uh-huh

Shadows erase in the last light of day night time is startin' to settle
Red colored stone Lord is leading my way to her cottage way down in the meadow
She's my sweet country girl...

Green trees and golden hay and sunshine here every day
Big cities far behind me well it's love with her to think I'm a gonna stay
About five o'clock in the late afternoon...
She's my sweet country girl yes she is
She's my sweet country girl and I love her she's my sweet country girl
