Rose Maddox Tall Men lyrics

I wish I was a kiss tree
A growing in the ground
And everytime my sweet pass by
I'd throw some kisses down

He's big and tall and handsome
But bashful as can be
I know he wants them kisses of mine
But he won't climb the tree

I love a tall man, he ain't a small man
My man is all man and the only one for me

He shys away from women
He simply disappears
Well, he rides all day and he sleeps all night
With a horse and a herd of steers

That cowpoke, he ain't human
They say that he prepares
To go to be with the sixgun on
And never take off his spurs

But I love a tall man, he ain't a small man
My man is all man and the only one for me

One night out on the prairie

The moon was shining bright
He put his arms around about me
And things were going right

He talked and talked of Texas
And drawed his Texas draw
When the moon went down and the sun came up
Nobody kissed me at all

But I love a tall man, he ain't a small man
My man is all man and the only one for me

I wish I was a kiss tree
Out on the lone prairie
And everytime my sweet pass by
He'd steal a kiss from me

And if he wants more kisses
Here's all he has to know
Just cut me down and in a Texas town
And watch them kisses grow

I love a tall man, he ain't a small man
My man is all man and the only one for me
