[Verse 1]
D G The winter wind was blowin' when we loaded that old truck A D With a few things that we had and all our dreams D G With my new bride there beside me we headed down the road A G A D I would show her places and things she'd never seen
[Verse 2]
D G First we went to Denver, Fort Worth, then San Antone A D She cheered me on at every rodeo D G But Houston finally ended and then San Angelo A G A D I didn't want to tell her but she knew that we were broke
[Chorus]
G A D But she never complained when the winnin's didn't come G A D She just took it all in stride G A D And if I rode good or bit the dust, she was just as proud G A D She was happy bein' by my side
[Verse 3]
D G Then in California the baby started showin' A D And all her clothes were gettin' way too small D G We couldn't spare the money to buy her any new ones A G A D She just wore my shirt and jeans and didn't mind at all
[Verse 4]
D G And early in the mornin' we'd wake up by the roadside A D I'd build a fire and she'd get out the eggs D G She'd cook us up some breakfast then we'd sit down there on the grass A G A D Lord, those were the best meals I guess I ever ate
[Chorus]
G A D But she never complained when the winnin's didn't come G A D She just took it all in stride G A D And if I rode good or bit the dust, she was just as proud G A D She was happy bein' by my side
[Verse 5]
D G Well now those days are over, and somehow we got ahead A D That little gal I married's still here with me D G We finally got the house we planned down there beside the stream A G A D And all those old hard times are just cherished memories
[Chorus]
G A D But she never complained when the winnin's didn't come G A D She just took it all in stride G A D And if I rode good or bit the dust, she was just as proud G A D She was happy bein' by my side
[Outro]
G A D She was happy bein' by my side
