I can't hold it on the road,
When you're sitting right beside me
And I'm drunk out of my mind,
Merely from the fact that you are here
And I have not been known as the Saint of San Joaquin
And I'd just as soon right now
Pull on over to the side of the road
And show you what I mean
(Lah dah dah. ... Lah dah dah dah&.)
July, you're a woman,
More woman than any woman I've ever known
An' I can't hold my eyes
On the white lines out before me,
When your hand is on my collar,
And you're talking in my ear
And I have been around with a gypsy girl named Shannon,
The daughter of the Devil;
It is strange that I should mention her to you;
I haven't thought of her in years.
(Lah dah dah. ... Lah dah dah dah&.)
July, you're a woman
More than any woman I've ever known
I can't take it on the road,
When you're sitting right beside me,
And I'm drunk out of my mind
Merely from the fact that you are here
And I have not been known as the Saint of San Juaquin
And I'd just as soon right now
Pull on over to the side of the road
And show you what I mean
(Lah dah dah. ... Lah dah dah dah&.)
July, you're a woman
More than any woman I've ever known
July, you're a woman
More than any woman I've ever known
July, you're a woman
More than any woman I've ever known
