Verse 1

Nothin' like this way out in West Texas
Galveston Bay is a whole other world
My wife's in our room gettin' over her sunburn
How would Louis L'Amour get me next to that girl

Verse 2

She tells me her tan is the same all over
She asks me to dance and says "Keep your boots on"
She never met a number one cowboy
We rolled in the sand and drank rum until dawn

Chorus

Who's the blonde stranger, who entered my life,
Makin' me over, in the moonlight?
This side of Texas, is all new to me
Who's the blonde stranger, who lives by the sea

Verse 3

I stayed up all night and for me that's the first time
Sneak in the room just as cool as I can.
I pull back the sheets and the bed is all empty
Except for a note left from some guy named Dan.

Verse 4

My head got all light and the room started spinning
I stepped outside just to get some fresh air
Out on a wave was my own darlin' Lola
And some pretty boy with bleach in his hair

Chorus

Who's the blonde stranger, out there with my wife
What were they doin', in the moonlight?
This side of Texas, is all new to me
Am D G | G
Who are these strangers, who live by the sea

Verse 5

Back on the ranch and ev'rything's normal
Beach blanket bingo comes on the T.V.
We talk in our sleep and then the next morning
I ask her "Who's Dan?" and she says "Who's Marie?"

Chorus

Who's the blonde stranger, who entered my life,
Makin' me over, in the moonlight?
This side of Texas, is all new to me
Who's the blonde stranger, who lives by the sea?
Who's the blonde stranger, who entered my life,
Makin' me over, in the moonlight?
This side of Texas, is all new to me
Who are these strangers, who live by the sea?
