Answer
Hello Krista,

That was a song called "Brass Buckles". It was a Country hit for Barbi Benton in 1975.

She outgrew brass buckles on her shoes
At twelve she was filling out her jeans
With a mind young and wild and a body that the devil styled
She could make a man do anything

She was old enough to try anything that crossed her mind
She liked anything that caught her eye
Like big diamond rings and shiny limousines
The devil never gave her a chance to be a child

Woh-oh, she outgrew brass buckles on her shoes
At twelve she was filling out her jeans
With a mind young and wild and a body that the devil styled
She could make a man do anything

They'd land her on the ground then giddy up or down
But she just had to make her dreams come true
On every movie screen you could see this country queen
She just ended for the playboy magazine

Woh-oh, she outgrew brass buckles on her shoes
At twelve she was filling out her jeans
With a mind young and wild and a body that the devil styled
She could make a man do anything

Woh-oh, she outgrew brass buckles on her shoes
At twelve she was filling out her jeans
With a mind young and wild and a body that the devil styled
She could make a man do anything

She outgrew brass buckles on her shoes
At twelve she was filling out her jeans
With a mind young and wild and a body that the devil styled
She could make a man do anything

She outgrew brass buckles on her shoes
At twelve she was filling out her jeans
With a mind young and wild and a body that the devil styled
She could make a man do anything


Glad to be of help. Cheers........Mel.
