You honky tonked again all night
Then woke me up wanting me to hold you tight
This time you're out of luck
You're sleeping by yourself
And let me tell you something else.
You better do better
Or you'll never keep my love yours
Keep it up, boy gonna lose this girl for sure
You'll never get over me if I ever walk out that door
You better do better
Than you've done before.
Now I know men will act like boys
But that don't mean their women are toys
You can't play my heart like it was game
A woman needs some grown up things.
You better do better
Or you'll never keep my love yours
Keep it up, boy gonna lose this girl for sure
You'll never get over me if I ever walk out that door
You better do better
Than you've done before.
Now, honey, I don't wanna find somebody new
But I know I could and so do.
You better do better
Or you'll never keep my love yours
Keep it up, boy gonna lose this girl for sure
You'll never get over me if I ever walk out that door
You better do better
Than you've done before.
You better do better
Than you've done better...
