"Better By Now" lyrics

"Better By Now"

I finally got the nerve
To go out on the town
Cause it's been awhile, been all couped up
And I ain't left this house

My friend said don't you worry man
We'll have us a hell of a time
So, I got cleaned up and put on my hat
But much to my surprise

You came slidin' 'cross that dance floor
With that yeah you missed me grin
Acting like you're the one I'm here for
Ready to break my heart again
But Stupid me I walked on out
Pulled you close and spun you 'round
Took you home, woke up alone
Knowing damn well, me and my heart should know better by now

I still can't figure out
Just how you managed to
Be here on the same damn night as me
Flashing those baby blues

I swear it seems like you planned out
Each time I lose my mind
'Cause you strut the room in those daisy dukes
Just like you did last night

When you came slidin' 'cross that dance floor
With that yeah you missed me grin
Acting like you're the one I'm here for
Ready to break my heart again
But stupid me, I walked on out
Pulled you close and spun you 'round
Took you home, woke up alone
Knowing damn well, me and my heart should know better by now

Better by now
Oh, I should know better by now

You came slidin' 'cross that dance floor
With that yeah you missed me grin
Acting like you're the one I'm here for
Ready to break my heart again
But stupid me, I walked on out
Pulled you close and spun you 'round
Took you home, woke up alone
Knowing damn well, me and my heart should know better by now
Me and my heart should know better by now
Yeah, you'd think I'd know better by now
