Nights with Elaina – Me and My Man
Performed by Debbie “Hayride” Harper & The Prairie Songbirds
Nights with Elaina — Music and Lyrics by Alan Nafzger
Verse 1:
Late-night whispers, strumming slow and sweet,
You hit that first chord, baby, swept me off my feet.
Like that steel guitar slide, you tease and pull me in,
Every note’s a touch, every chord’s a sin.
Pre-Chorus:
You got that Telecaster twang, sharp as a lover’s call,
And when you start to play, baby, I can’t help but fall.
Chorus:
‘Cause you’re my country melody, soft like moonlit skies,
Every verse we sing, keeps the fire in our eyes.
You pluck the strings of my heart, just like a fine guitar,
On those Nights with Elaina, love’s never too far.
Oh, Nights with Elaina, where the music makes us one,
We’ll keep dancing, baby, ’til the morning sun.
Verse 2:
That honky-tonk beat, it’s the pounding of our hearts,
Steady, relentless, like our love right from the start.
A touch like your fingers on that guitar’s strings,
Pulls me in closer, oh, the joy that it brings.
Pre-Chorus:
You’re like a tight pair of jeans, holding me so right,
A lover’s embrace on a summer night.
Chorus:
‘Cause you’re my country melody, soft like moonlit skies,
Every verse we sing, keeps the fire in our eyes.
You pluck the strings of my heart, just like a fine guitar,
On those Nights with Elaina, love’s never too far.
Oh, Nights with Elaina, where the music makes us one,
We’ll keep dancing, baby, ’til the morning sun.
Bridge:
Your voice is a whisper in the dark, like a slow guitar slide,
I feel it deep inside me, baby, can’t fight the tide.
Like a banjo picking fast, you make me want to chase,
Every stolen kiss, every breath, every trace.
Chorus:
‘Cause you’re my country melody, soft like moonlit skies,
Every verse we sing, keeps the fire in our eyes.
You pluck the strings of my heart, just like a fine guitar,
On those Nights with Elaina, love’s never too far.
Oh, Nights with Elaina, where the music makes us one,
We’ll keep dancing, baby, ’til the morning sun.
(bridge) (fiddle and steal guitar)
Me and my man, we tune in every night,
Elaina’s voice makes the barn lights shine bright.
With every country hit, we’re swayin’ in the hay,
We know she’s the queen of the airwaves today.
Her stories and tunes fit the fields so well,
It’s like her words put the crops under a spell.
From tractors to tailgates, she’s got us in line,
Out on the farm, Elaina’s music’s divine.
(fiddle bridge)
Ya’ll come visit us at farm dot F. M..
We Love “Nights with Elaina!”
Maria, Dairy Farmer’s Wife from Stephenville, Texas
“Let me tell ya, when ‘Nights with Elaina’ comes on the radio, it’s like Elaina knows how to work her magic through the airwaves. My man may spend all day with the cows, but as soon as that smooth country music starts playing, he’s all about me. There’s something about that music—next thing you know, we’re slow dancing right there in the kitchen. Elaina’s got us in the mood faster than a herd of cattle heading to the barn!”
Jessica, Rancher’s Partner from Cody, Wyoming
“I never thought I’d say this, but Elaina’s voice and her country playlist are the secret to my man’s softer side. After a long day on the ranch, when the sun goes down and ‘Nights with Elaina’ turns up, it’s like flipping a switch. He turns from cowboy to Casanova real quick. That music sets the mood just right, and suddenly, we’ve got more than just hay to roll around in.”
Caroline, Farmer’s Wife from Windthorst, Texas
“Farming isn’t always romantic—unless you’ve got ‘Nights with Elaina’ playing in the background. My farmer husband is all business when it comes to the fields, but when Elaina’s on the radio, he loosens up, and, well, let’s just say the barn isn’t the only thing getting some tender loving care around here. Her music is the perfect mix of sultry and sweet, and it sure makes those late nights feel a lot warmer.”
Sarah, Rancher’s Wife from Lubbock, Texas
“Elaina’s voice just has a way of turning a rough, rugged rancher into a man who knows exactly how to sweep me off my feet. ‘Nights with Elaina’ has been our little secret weapon for keeping the spark alive. Between the crooning country tunes and the stories of love and heartbreak, my man is more than ready to trade his boots for a little romance when the show starts. I mean, who knew the radio could put you in the mood like that?”
