She road a slow train to the city she was young and she was pretty A full grown mountain woman that had blossomed in the spring She took a job at waiting tables at the House of Seven Gables That's where she met the man from Bowling Green He was somewhat older with hair down on his shoulders And he knew how to touch a lady and he must have touched her dreams Sung her songs and called her baby till that country girl went crazy For that guitar picking man from Bowling Green Well he got what he was after and after that he left her He packed up his guitar caught a westbound train It was just another city where the country girls were pretty Easy picking for the man from Bowling Green Well he got what he was after and after that he left her He packed up his guitar caught a westbound train It was just another city where the country girls were pretty Easy picking for the man from Bowling Green Now her life is twisted like some West Virginia back-road And the House of Seven Gables has got a brand new queen To anyone that is buying sheâ??ll drink to keep from crying For that guitar picking man from Bowling Green Yes she loved that guitar man from Bowling Green
