Plaid and Calico Johnny Horton

[Intro]
Calico, calico, plaid and calico

[Chorus]
They fell in love in plaid and calico, plaid and calico, plaid and calico
They fell in love in plaid and calico
Like the good old fashioned days of long ago

[Verse 1]
It all began at a country dance affair
All the neighborhood was there
There was laughter everywhere
A lonesome cowboy came upon the scene
And met a gal in calico, the answer two or three

[Chorus]
They danced all night in plaid and calico, plaid and calico, plaid and calico
They danced all night in plaid and calico
While the fiddles played the music country style

[Verse 2]
It wasn't long 'til the two were altar bound
And the folks for miles around all proceeded into town
And while the organ played the wedding tune
The cowboy and his sweetheart were the blushing bride and groom
