Lyrics
Verse 1
Sunrise shining on a front porch swing
Early light falls on everything
Old dog yawns at my worn-out boots
Dreaming of you while the morning’s new
Neighbors talking as they pass me by
Coffee’s strong and the sky’s so wide
There you are laughing from the screen door
Girl, you’re the reason I’m wanting more
Chorus
Oh, Loretta, my heart’s on fire
Giddy up, girl, and take me higher
Boom-ba-boom, my boots keep time
Oh, Loretta, you’re always on my mind
Post-Chorus
Oom-papa, oom-papa, mow mow
Oom-papa, oom-papa, mow mow
Verse 2
She walks in the room and the whole place glows
Laugh like summer and a heart that knows
Hair like honey, eyes so blue
Every day’s brighter just thinking of you
Pre-Chorus
I see that smile and the whole crowd cheers
No one like you in a thousand years
Chorus
Oh, Loretta, my heart’s on fire
Giddy up, girl, and take me higher
Boom-ba-boom, my boots keep time
Oh, Loretta, you’re always on my mind
Post-Chorus
Oom-papa, oom-papa, mow mow
Oom-papa, oom-papa, mow mow
Bridge
Under the moon with a silver glow
Long drive home on a country road
Tires spin slow but my heart runs fast
Chasing that moment, hoping it lasts
Chorus
Oh, Loretta, my heart’s on fire
Giddy up, girl, and take me higher
Boom-ba-boom, my boots keep time
Oh, Loretta, you’re always on my mind
Post-Chorus
Oom-papa, oom-papa, mow mow
Oom-papa, oom-papa, mow mow
Outro
Sundown’s near but our love won’t fade
Sweet Loretta, you’re my serenade
Hands held close through the rhythm and rhyme
I’ll sing your name for the rest of my time
Post-Chorus
Oom-papa, oom-papa, mow mow
Oom-papa, oom-papa, mow mow
Oom-papa, oom-papa, mow mow
