You Look to Yours Songtext
von Colter Wall

I met a little girl in Saskatoon
She was beaming, bold and beautiful
Higher than the moon
Before I could profess
She left too soon
The words she spoke were enough to make me blue

She said, "I know just what you′re wishing
Two folks in our condition
We'd never leave this bar room with our pride
So go about your earthly mission
Don′t trust no politicians
You look to yours and I will look to mine"

I met a Nashville honky tonkin' queen
And the caress of her amber lips
Was reserved for Jim Beam
Took her by the arm and she made a scene
Whiskey was yet to dull her tongue it seemed


She said, "I know just what you're wishing
Two folks in our condition
We′d never leave this bar room with our pride
So go about your earthly mission
Don′t trust no politicians
You look to yours and I will look to mine"

Now West, by God, Virginia is where I'm bound
She′s as wild, she's as wonderful
As any girl I′ve found
She'll keep me just as long as I′m around
I'll never have to hear that awful sound

Well I know just what you're wishing
Two folks in our condition
We′d never leave this bar room with our pride
So go about your earthly mission
Don′t trust no politicians
You look to yours and I will look to mine

You look to yours and I will look to mine
