She was sittin' on a kisstree growing in the ground
And everytime I passed her way she'd throw her kisses down
Well, I know that I ain't handsome, I'm bashful as can be
I'm crazy about her kisses but I ain't gonna climb the tree

(I love a tall man)
(I love a tall man)
Well, I ain't no small man
You're the only one for me

But I'm shy around the women I simply disappear
'Cause I ride all day and he sleep all night
With a horse and a herd of steers
Now they say I ain't human, though I really don't prepare
To go to be with the sixgun on and I never take off my spurs

(I love a tall man)
(I love a tall man)
Don't you go call a man
'Cause you're the only one for me

One night out on the prairie the moon was shining bright
I put my arms around about her and things were going right
And I have to tell her about Texas, I have proud of my Texas draw
The moon went down and the sun came up
And I dindn't kissed her at all

(But I love a tall man)
(I love a tall man)
Well, I ain't no small man
You're the only one for me

(I love a tall man)
(I love a tall man)
Don't you go call a man
You're the only one for me
Only one for me
