Lyrics of Luke Powers – Champagne Taste

CHAMPAGNE TASTE
I got a girl just pretty as can be
smart as a whip definitely smarter than me
which is why I cornsider myself one of the luckier men
in this here world
She’s from the north part of the state and I’m from the south
but it’s pretty dang country up there which is why I can’t figure out
just how she came to be so dang fancy

She’s got the champagne taste I got a beer budget
she likes it sweet I like it by the bucket
No mademoiselle I ain’t high falutin
that French stuff don’t get my boots a movin’

I was thinking about it the other day and it just didn’t add up
cuz the first time I met her she was hanging out of a pickup truck
covered in mud and cranking Pantera
Well it was love at first sight as you can probably figure
so I packed up my bags and headed out to Denver
cuz thats where she was living and I heard the beer was cold as the Rockies

She’s got the champagne taste I got a beer budget
she likes it sweet I like it by the bucket
No mademoiselle I ain’t high falutin
that French stuff don’t get my boots a movin’

I know it’s hard to imagine a boy liked me living in the city
but now instead of standing around ugly Im sitting here pretty
we still go out and cut a rug from time to time
I hope all this don’t sound like one big complain
cuz Im as happy strawberry floating in champagne
and I still pay some times when she feels like drinking beer too

She’s got the champagne taste I got a beer budget
she likes it sweet I like it by the bucket
No mademoiselle I ain’t high falutin
high falutin high falutin she got the champagne taste
I got a beer budget
no mademoiselle I ain’t high falutin
that French stuff don’t get my boots a movin’
