Recorded by Jean Shepard
Written by Larry Lee
C F C
You're outstanding in your field and that's where you ought to be
F G7
Outstanding in your field in quick sand to your knees
C F
You know he loves me true but you must try him one more time
G7 C
You're outstanding in your field but you'd rather be in mine
F C
In the field of stealing love you're public enemy one to three
G7 C
The next two lips on your list are kissed by only me
F C
Love grows greener round my field and you're the jealous kind
G7 C
You're outstanding in your field but you'd rather be in mine
Repeat #1
F C
You've seen his arms around me across a fence from you
G7 C
Now you're after my green pasture and there's nothing you won't do
F C
But I think he sees you coming and I can tell you're trying
G7 C
You're outstanding in your field but you'd rather be in mine
Repeat #1
