A tall drink of water in a cotton dress
That preacher's daughter, she sure is blessed
As sunlight passes through the fabric so soft
You can imagine what goes through my thoughts
She says they'll be a time for all of that
When my dress is white and your suit is black

[Chorus]
There's so many fish in the sea
And I know it's a great big world
But I couldn't help but fall in love so hard
For my dry county girl
For my dry county girl, yeah

It's widely known that I have my flaws
While she's the Joan of Arkansas
Her lips won't touch the demon wine
But her eyes are full of pure moonshine
And I get drunk just holding her hand
I get high thinking I could be her man

[Chorus]

For my dry county girl
Lord, I fell so hard
For my dry county girl
For my dry county girl, yeah
Yeah, talking about my... [Fade]

    I think it refers to many things. For one like SouthernCowboy24 said that it's the emotional value that holds the highest standard and one we seem to be forgetting.

    I also admire the girl he describes: strong, noble and I love the line "her lips don't touch the demon wine but her eyes are full of pure moonshine" cuz it's so hard to find a girl like that. A girl not corrupted like the girls growing up today with their cell phones are parties and etc. She's a pure girl who makes you just sigh in joy.
