[Verse 1]
Caught a cheap flight out to Colorado
Met your brother in a dive bar light
He said
“You gotta meet this baby girl
Though”
Showed me a photo and it changed my life
Pointy little ears in a hoodie
Flat face pressed to the glass
My heart tripped hard on a Tuesday
Knew that moment I was done
I was done
[Chorus]
Frenchie in the front seat
Riding shotgun
Tongue out in the wind
Tiny queen of the concrete
Yeah
That’s the night our whole world began
Love at first sight
I didn’t stand a chance
Frenchie in the front seat
Turned a layover into romance (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Picked you up the very next morning
Paperwork
Collar
Shaky hands
You snored all the way through the airport
Like you knew exactly who I am
Now it’s big sky blue in Montana
Snow on the boots by the door
You’re snuggled up under my flannel
Little heartbeat I was searching for
[Chorus]
Frenchie in the front seat
Riding gravel roads into the dusk
Tiny queen of the backseat
Drooling on the maps and the camping stuff
Love at first sight
I never had a plan
Frenchie in the front seat
Turned a lone wolf to a family man
[Bridge]
Someday when the grey hairs find you
I’ll still call you my baby girl (baby girl)
Every mile we ever wandered
You’re the best part of this world
This world
[Chorus]
Frenchie in the front seat
Windows down through the mountain pass
Tiny queen of the front seat
Snoring like a freight train
Making me laugh
Love at first sight
Yeah
I’d do it again
Frenchie in the front seat
From Colorado to Montana
Amen
