Adaliene - Keith Anderson

The first naked lady I ever saw

Was that tattoo on my uncle's arm

On daddy's farm that summer he drove up

And helped us build that barn

He rolled up his sleeves

His arms were lean

He flexed and made her dance for me

I turned red and we both laughed

And hoped my daddy didn't see

He got all teary-eyed and serious

When I asked him who she was

That's Adaliene in '63

I wish you could have met her

She was everything to me

Hear it all the time love at first sight

When I saw that girl I knew I had

To love her all my life

I was just 19 when I got this thing

And I swear that it still stings

Everytime I think about my Adaliene

Get back to work you lazy bums

My daddy joked he's lying son

Whatever it is he said he did

You can best believe he's never done

Mom yelled hey guys it's supper time

Wipe off your feet and wash your hands

And as we did I said Hey dad

You ever seen that tattoo dance

He got all teary-eyed and serious

He shook his head and said

Yeah I remember her

That's Adaliene in '63

First time I ever saw your uncle take a drink

Hear it all the time love at first sight

When I saw her in his arms I knew he'd

Love her all his life

I was 24 in your Grandpa's Ford

And I paid for all that ink

Yeah I know all about that Adaliene

I knew her well

Hell all he ever talked about from

The moment that he fell

Were those wedding bells

That house up on the hill

And how empty and how lonely life would be

Without his Adaliene

Hear it all the time love at first sight

When I saw that girl I knew

I'd have to love her all my life

I was just 19 when I got this thing

And I swear that it still stings

Everytime I think about my Adaliene
