Lyrics

When Amanda Smiles

The first time that I saw her she was the rodeo queen
Red, white and blue sequins, custom boots and Lord those jeans
When she rode the arena the cowboys all went wild
When she turned to wave my way, I saw Amanda smile … and

When Amanda smiles, the day seems a little brighter
My chest gets a little tight and it gets hard to breathe
When Amanda smiles, heaven seems a little closer
And everything’s comin’ up roses if ya know what I mean
She’s got the walk, she’s got the talk, she’s got the style
You ain’t seen nothing’ till you‘ve seen Amanda smile…

Lord knows she ain’t perfect but she’s close enough for me
She’s every bit as pretty as the girls in those fashion magazines
She ‘s the model for the cowgirl that rides through every cowboy’s dream
You know I’d walk a country mile just to see Amanda smile

When Amanda smiles, the day seems a little brighter
My chest gets a little tight and it gets hard to breathe
When Amanda smiles, heaven seems a little closer
And everything’s comin’ up roses if ya know what I mean
She’s got the walk, she’s got the talk, she’s got the style
You ain’t seen nothing’ till you‘ve seen Amanda smile…

(instrumental bridge)

When Amanda smiles, the day seems a little brighter
My chest gets a little tight and it gets hard to breathe
When Amanda smiles, heaven seems a little closer
And everything’s comin’ up roses if ya know what I mean
She’s got the walk, she’s got the talk, she’s got the style
You ain’t seen nothing’ till you‘ve seen Amanda smile…

She’s got the walk, she’s got the talk, she’s got the style
You ain’t seen nothing’ till you’ve seen Amanda smile
