Wynonna She Is His Only Need Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Billy was a small town loner who never did dream
Of ever leaving southern Arizona or ever hearing wedding bells ring
He never had a lot of luck with the ladies but he sure had a lot of good working skills
Never cared about climbing any ladder, he knew the way in a small café, found the will

[Verse 2]
He met Miss Bonnie and a little bit of her was a little too much
A few movies and a few months later the feeling got strong enough
They didn't own a car so it must have been love that drove them uptown
For a diamond, that's when he started going

[Chorus]
Over the line, working overtime
To give her things just to hear her say she don't deserve them
But he loves her and he just kept going overboard
Over the limit to afford to give her things he knew she wanted
'Cause without her, where would he be
See, it's not for him; she is his only need

[Verse 3]
Ring on her finger and one on the ladder, a new promotion every now and then
Bonnie worked until she couldn't tie her apron Then stayed at home and had the first of two children and my, how the time did fly

[Verse 4]
The babies grew up and moved away
Left 'em sitting on the front porch rocking
And then Billy watching Bonnie's hair turn gray

[Verse 5]
And every once in a while you could see him get up and he'd head downtown
'Cause he heard about something she wanted and it just had to be found
Didn't matter how simple or how much, it was love and boy ain't that love just something
When it's strong enough to keep a man going

[Chorus]
Over the line, working overtime
To give her things just to hear her say she don't deserve them
But he loves her and he just kept going overboard
Over the limit to afford to give her things he knew she wanted
'Cause without her, where would he be
See, it's not for him; she is his only need

[Tag]
Over the line, working overtime, she is his only need
His only need, overboard, over the limit, just for her
She is his only need, his only need [fade out]
