The following are lyrics for country music with a male lead vocalist:

• A Primrose in the Night
• Its tough to meet a lady in the bustle of the day
• So many women take the time to simply walk away
• Living life between the sheets don't matter anyhow.
• It's really tough to find Miss Right, much less a Miss Right-now.
• Chorus:
• I don't take to excusing for the women of the land
• As every one's a flower fighting through the desert sand
• But flowers never open up before the morning light
• So its hard to tell a thistle from a primrose in the night
• When you treat a lass the right way, you may find her in your bed
• When you treat a girl the wrong way, she starts messing with your head
• If that lady has some magic, you may find her as your wife
• If that woman casts her own dark spells, you're stuck with her for life
• You see a gentle woman as you look upon her face
• You may see her as sultry or you may see her as grace
• I pray you find a flower with a heart that's kind and true
• I pray she finds a primrose growing deep inside of you.
• (c) 1991-1992 David I. Brager
• Sometimes life is cruel
• If you judge a book by the color of the bind
• Then the words on the inside, your soul will never find
• Your eyes may see the world outside, your heart may see the love
• But unless you look within the book, you'll never meet the dove
• CHORUS:
• Although a woman's hat is white, it doesn't mean she's pure
• And clothes she wears don't say a thing to tell if she's a fool
• As good girls wear their hats in black, you may find your life's cure
• Or find in time that life's unkind and sometimes life is cruel.
• Some gals wear their western gear after they leave their jobs
• While others get to take theirs off when coming from the range
• And still there's times to put them on and wear the whole day through
• Or when the rush of living life won't give you time to change.
• Each woman is a unique blend of color, love and life
• Though God may make some look alike, don't mean they're both the same
• No mirrors can distinguish from the image of the one
• But each heart plays its own part and each strives for its own aim.
• (C) 1991 David Brager
• "Good girls wear black hats" and "No mirrors"
