Lyrics:
First time I saw her she was leaning up against a pole
Just standing there twirling her hair
Her eyes as black as coal
I asked her name she laughed and said
They call me the clear blue sky
I should've known then that I'd pay for that but
At the time I didn't know why
She left me boys (what?) she's gone for good (too bad!) I tell you once it's a son of a gun but she's the best girl I never had
We crossed paths in Texas
She was walking a big black dog
I said howdy Sky, remember me?
I might as well have been talking to a log
She looked me up and down and
A grin crept across her face
She mumbled something about "Mississip"
But I couldn't put a name to the place
Chorus
Solo
I think about her when I'm blue
Drinking the time gone by
That mystery girl out in the world
They call the clear blue sky
Tell the truth I ain't unhappy
Never felt too bad
It's probably fate that I never found
The best girl I never had
She took off boys, she's gone for good
I tell you what it's a son of a gun
She's the best girl I never had
