lyrics

FIRST IN LINE

You’re the girl that everybody wants to know
You’re the one they want to be close to
Ypu’ve got brains, you’ve got beauty, you’ve got attitude
And you’ve got it all working for you
And I know there’s lots of boys hanging’ round
Right outside your door
But you can send them all home now
Cause I’m the one you’ve been waiting for

CHORUS

I’m going to be first in line
I’m going to make you notice me
I’m going to be right on time
I’ll make you mine -- you just wait and see
I’m going to be first in line
I ain’t going to get stuck at the back of the pack
I’m going to be right on time
Standing up tall and not holding back
I’m going to be first; I’m going to be first in line
_____________

I ain’t no smooth talker; I ain’t no millionaire
I drive a truck not a fancy car
I can’t dance I don’t know much about romance
But I can play this old guitar
And I ain’t afraid to stand up
Sing out loud, and tell you how I feel
And my words ring true
When I tell you that my love for you is real

CHORUS

BRIDGE

I dream about you at night girl and I think about you every day
I see you walk by and there’s so many things I want to say
I used to be scared, but I ain’t afraid anymore
When the sun comes up I’m going to walk straight up to your front door

(CHORUS)
