Lake House Songtext
von Brad Cox

7:00 a.m. out at the lake house
Sun is burning red up in my eyes
I can hear the chirping of the bird laugh
Last night, I went to sleeping outside
I was thinking ′bout a girl I met a while back
I don't know and I hardly caught her name
She′s not from here and I don't know where she comes from
But I can't seem to get her off my brain

I′d like to find her and ask her to dinner
Not the kind you try for just a one night stand
Maybe sometime take her to the lake house
Maybe sometime ask to be her man


She was sporting cowboy boots and wearing blue jeans
Her eyes lit up the endless summer night
She listened to a song I′d been recording
Her smile was like a panoramic sight
I know she spends her days breaking horses
Spinning country records and cowboy tunes
I heard that she's coming down this weekend
Time to pucker up and make a move

I′d like to find her and ask her to dinner
Not the kind you try for just a one night stand
Maybe sometime take her to the lake house
Maybe sometime ask to be her man

Hey, I got this lake house, you should see it
It's only down the road a couple miles
I bet you′d feel like you're in Texas
I bet you′ll wanna stay a while

I wanna get to know you better
Find out what lays in your darkest fire
I bet you'd feel like you're in Texas
I know you′re gonna stay a while

So I said would you like to go dinner
I′m not interested at all in a one night stand
Now that you've have been to see the lake house
I′m asking you if I can be your man
Tell me baby, can I be your man?
I'm asking you if I can be your man
