I never was the kind to wear my feelings on my sleeve

But since I've met you girl there's been a world of change in me

Well I've got to say I love you hope you like the sound of that

Cause I can't keep it under this old hat

Under this old hat is the head you turned around

And the heart you stole away the day we met

Under this old hat's two arms that long to hold you tight

And boots I'd walk the soles off of to be here by your side

And every night in my prayers there's just one thing I ask

That the man you love will always be under this old hat

[ fiddle ]

You've got me feeling things that I've never felt before

And it's so good to know when I come a knocking at your door

That of all the men who'd love to waltz across your welcome mat

The one you want is under this old hat

Under this old hat...

That the man you love will always be under this old hat
