Lyrics - By Jeff Dearman
Music/Vocals - By David Vander Hoff - DEMO available

v1

Ridin my bike to the five and dime
Down the road past the county line.
Used to see her at closin time,
standin on the corner there.

Chorus:

Well she was my first love way back when.
Her name was Mary Jane Mulligan.
She was the toughest cow-girl
from the blue-grass state.
When you messed with her, you played with fire.
She was filled with hungriness and desire.
She was the toughest cow-girl
Boy you'd better not be late.

V2

Every time I tried to catch her eye.
(Her) Boyfriend drove his Chevy by.
Blazin' noise under-neath the hood.
That old '57 always did look good.

Chorus:

Well she was my first love way back when.
Her name was Mary Jane Mulligan
She was the toughest cow-girl from the blue-grass
state.
When you messed with her,
you played with fire,
she was filled with hung-ri-ness and desire.
She was the toughest cow-girl
Boy You'd better not be late.

V3

Time has passed and the years flew by
Somehow I managed to get on by
But late at night when I go to sleep.
I dream of that girl I could never keep.

END CHORUS:

Well she was my first love way back when.
Her name was Mary Jane Mulligan
She was the toughest cow-girl from the
blue-grass state.
When you messed wit her, you played with fire.
She was filled with hung-ri-ness and desire.
She was the toughest cow-girl.
Boy you'd better not be late.
You'd better not be late.
