The Cougar That Got Away
Lyrics
Baby wants to play
Got all her stuff on display
Tryin' to get back the innocence
She lost along the way
Hey hey that's good enough for me

She left a Christian family
In Bristol, Tennessee
Her mama prays to the good Lord
To treat her mercifully
Hey hey that's good enough for me

Good enough; good enough for me
Good enough; good enough for me
Good enough; good enough for me

She's forty-one in May
My cougar ran away
She didn't offer an explanation
There wasn't nothin' to say
Hey hey that's good enough for me

Good enough; good enough for me
Good enough; good enough for me
Good enough; good enough for me
