A Girl
Blake Shelton
Struggling with A Girl? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
Had to steal, daddy's car, park it far from her house And throwing rocks at her window til she's sneaking out How to get a college kid to get you good stuff Mix a perfect drink in a Sonic cup How to lean back, fake a yawn Stretch your arm round her shoulder Pull her closer til she let you lean in for a kiss How to turn a twenty into Saturday night How to make her momma let you have her til midnight How not to let her know she's got you caught These are the things that you learn When your heart just wants to burn, burn These are the steps that you take When you're only thinking one thing And you don't know nothing bout a promise and forever All you know is nothing's better than being together And the only thing you want in the world, is a girl How to act like you're listening to her about her day When she's talking and she's blocking the game How to shut your mouth when it's that time of the month Knowing when she's mad and when she's really just drunk And you swear that you'll change all our ways Just to get her to believe you and move into your man cave How to hide a ring in your pocket for weeks How to say them four words and make 'em sound so sweet That she'd never ever say no, no no no These are the things that you learn When your heart just wants to burn, burn These are the steps that you take When you're only thinking one thing And you don't know nothing bout living ever after But you know you're nothing unless you get to have her And the only thing you want in the world, is a girl Oh, you won't believe the way she's got you acting She'll talk you into things you never thought would happen When the only thing you want in the world, is a girl Mm, yeah, just a girl Just a girl, just a girl
