Don't Want It Back

The new girl in this tiny little nothin’ town
Meeting all the people and the rumours gone ‘round
But then things stop
And baby I’m lost

Because they tell me he’s no good
But I think he’s just misunderstood
Baby, when he’s talking to me
I don’t think I can breath

This boy is sweeter than a sweet tea
Stronger than a shot of jack
With a laugh, boomin’ like the rolling tide
Pushin’ his hair back with his stupid li’l snapback
He lights up the room
And can stop the world from turnin’
With his bright eyes and brighter smile
But most of all, this boy,
He can steal my heart

A li’l nervous, first date at the drive in
Those girls keep whisperin’ behind my back
Sayin’ “That silly li’l girl will never be back”
Scared of a broken heart
But runnin’ with wolves is my new cuppa tea

This boy is sweeter than a sweet tea
Stronger than a shot of jack
With a laugh, boomin’ like the rolling tide
Pushin’ his hair back with his stupid li’l snapback
He lights up the room
And can stop the world from turnin’
With his bright eyes and brighter smile
But most of all, this boy,
He can steal my heart

Who am I to believe these strangers’ tales?
Or am I really just a naive kid
Flying down these back road street
Hair flying, singing on the off beat
All I know is when he’s around
Baby,
I. Can’t. Breathe.

He’s sweeter than sweet tea
Stronger than a shot of jack
Makes me laugh, boomin’ like the rolling tide
Pushin’ my hair off my neck with his stupid li’l snapback
He dimmed the room
Stopped my world from turnin’
Stole my heart
But I’m happy with that,
Baby, I don’t want it back
