[Verse 1]
He stepped out of the corn, all shy and shaky,
Lookin’ like he saw a goddess, but a bit hazy.
Wants to fah… fah… flirt, but can’t find the words,
Makes me think, “Boy, he’s tied up by my curves.”
[Chorus]
“Well, durn it, why don’t you just ask me right?”
But he’s partin’ corn stalks, like I bite,
“Well, wuh… wuh… would ya wanna go frog giggin’ tonight?”
Oh boy, you sure do stutter, but it mighrt work just right!
[Verse 2]
He pulls off his cowboy hat, tips it like a dream,
Eyes all twinklin’, nervous in the sun.
“Wuh… wuh… would ya gig with me?”
Well shoot, now I know he’s sweet on me!
Boy howdy, I latch right on, no letting go,
Threw my arms ‘round his waist, let him know.
“I like giggin’ frogs, I’ll cook ‘em up fine,”
He tries to back off, but baby, he’s all mine!
[Chorus]
“Well, durn it, why don’t you just ask me, right, No?”
But he’s partin’ corn stalks, like I might, not.
“Tah-tah, would you go frog giggin’ tonight?”
Oh boy, he sure does stutter, but he sure is polite!
[Bridge]
Under Oklahoma’s hot and heavy sky,
His words faded in and out, but I knew this guy.
In that old flat-bottom boat, we spark a fire,
Frogs twinklin’ at us, pushin; us to desire.
Lantern light flickers, bare feet in the water,
I knew this man’s mine, ‘n’ love that laughter.
“I rah-rah reckon I’d lose a frog-giggin’ contest to ya,”
And that’s how sweet talk gets a girl to swoon.
[Chorus]
“Well, durn it, why don’t you just ask me right?”
But he’s partin’ corn stalks, like it’s a sin,
“Tah-tah, would you go frog giggin’ tonight?”
Oh boy, you sure do stutter, but we may be tight!
[Verse 3]
A few months later, sparkin’ down by the lake,
Only took him three months for that big step to take.
But back on that boat, I was ready from the start,
He was a gentleman, real slow with my heart.
Six months in, a kiss on the cheek,
A year later, finally swapin’ spit, ain’t that sweet?
And, durn, another year before I could rodeo ride
AND, he ain’t tongue tied anymore!
[Final Chorus]
“Well, durn it, he finally asked me, right?
And it all started with giggin’ frogs that night.
No more tongue-tied talk, now he’s slick as can be,
Oh boy, he sure did stutter, but I fell hard, ya see!
[Outro]
Yeah, he stuttered when we met, but now he’s all right,
Frog giggin’ love, under that moon.
Not tongue tied anymore, but I’ll never forget,
And that shy cornfield boy eventually got up a sweat.
And shoot, now he’s a man with no stutter,
And honey, we rodeo, in ways that’ll make ya shudder!
And it all started with a stutter…
