Lyrics
I asked myself when I first met Emily
What's a girl like her talking to a guy like me
You're so young and pretty and I'm wise enough to see
I found myself a sweet honeybee
Oh Emily, Emily
Sweetest little woman that I ever did see
Oh Emily, could it be
A girl like you and a guy like me
Let's slow down and take it easy
There's a place for us under that old apple tree
Holding hands under the blue skies
Being with you tastes like sweet honey pie
Oh Emily, Emily
Sweetest little woman that I ever did see
Oh Emily, could it be
A girl like you and a guy like me
You know how it feels to have finally found
A love that lifts you off the ground
Your mom won't approve and your dad's gonna be mad
When they find out about the true love we have
But I couldn't care less about the outside world
Just give me some more loving, my sweet country girl
Oh Emily, Emily
Sweetest little woman that I ever did see
Oh Emily, could it be
A girl like you and a guy like me
My sweet Emily
My sweet Emily
