A Girl

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

All 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

Mmhmm, just a girl, just a girl
