[Verse 1]
She turns every head coming down the sidewalk
In that red sundress that she just bought
Causing a traffic jam on a green light
A string of pearls showing off her suntan
And all those curls dancing ‘round her RayBans
If you think that’s something to see

[Chorus]
You ought to see her when she’s on
That front porch in those cut-off jeans
And that Texas Longhorns t-shirt hair drying in the breeze
Humming along to some old Haggard song
You ought to see her when she’s on

[Verse 2]
Down at the office in those high heels
Looking like a million, closing big deals
She’ll remind the boys, eyes are way up here
Yeah that’ll make you smile ear to ear

[Chorus]
You ought to see her when she’s on
That leather couch, reading that fairy tale
To a sleepy-eyed little girl in pajamas and ponytails
Saying one day your prince charming will come along
You ought to see her when she’s on

[Chorus]
Oh, you ought to see her when she’s on
That front porch in those old cut-off jeans
And that Texas Longhorns t-shirt, smiling back at me
When you see her dressed to kill
And it drops your jaw

[Outro]
You ought to see her when she’s
On that leather couch reading that fairy tale
That’s when she’s on
That’s when she’s on that front porch
In those old cut-off jeans
That’s when she’s on
Oh, when she’s on
That’s when she’s on
