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
