Were You Layin' Down When You Stood Me Up?
12-17-05 by Kelton Prather and Mike Alexander

I fell for you when our eyes met,
You stole my heart away.
Now I'm broken hearted,
And it's been almost a day.

We were quite an item,
And such a pretty pair.
When you let your hair down,
Your legs shot up in the air.

Were you layin' down,
When you stood me up?
Were you pushin' him away,
Or screamin' giddyup?
Were you howlin' like a dog,
Or squealin' like a pup?
Were you layin' down,
When you stood me up?

We hit all the hotspots,
And then we went to town.
When you kick your heels up,
You always turn face down.

When you asked the band to play,
They all grabbed your ears.
While you played a solo,
Like you'd known the song for years.

Were you layin' down,
When you stood me up?
Were you pushin' him away,
Or screamin' giddyup?
Were you howlin' like a dog,
Or squealin' like a pup?
Were you layin' down,
When you stood me up?

I went to the church house,
And you went home to pack.
Now I'm waitin' out in front,
While you're there on your back.

Well I hate to bother you,
My little buttercup.
But you left me at the altar,
All slicked down and gussied up.

Were you layin' down,
When you stood me up?
Were you pushin' him away,
Or screamin' giddyup?
Were you howlin' like a dog,
Or squealin' like a pup?
Were you layin' down,
When you stood me up?

I guess I'll get over you,
Since you got under him.
I thought we had a big love,
Now the future's lookin' slim.

I gave you a diamond ring,
And promised to be true.
You gave me the finger,
Kept the ring and left me blue.

Were you layin' down,
When you stood me up?
Were you pushin' him away,
Or screamin' giddyup?
Were you howlin' like a dog,
Or squealin' like a pup?
Were you layin' down,
When you stood me up?
