"Better That Way" lyrics

Old boots on, storm clouds gone
Radio singing a Turnpike song
Coffee black, car seats in the back
Grandad's greased up trucker hat

Bleacher seats, scoreboard's bright
Home team winning a cross-town fight
A bar to drink, a church to pray
I'm just a little bit better that way

And I'm better when my jeans have lost about half their blue
I'm better when the work on the farm is done by noon
Better when her eyes of green are looking back at me
That fell in love at twenty-three
Are still mine to this day
Yeah, I'm just better that way

Better with a pocket ace in a poker game
Cover charge paid with ashtray change
Being a shoulder for a friend in need
Picture frame, make you laugh memories

Walking this Earth with my head held tall
Hearing my name in a southern drawl
Calling my mom 'cause I still can
Life's what happens when I make plans

And I'm better when my jeans have lost about half their blue
I'm better when the work on the farm is done by noon
Better when her eyes of green looking back at me
That fell in love at twenty-three
Are still mine to this day
Yeah, I'm just better that way

Yeah, I'm better

Better that way

And I'm better when my jeans have lost about half their blue
I'm better when the work on the farm is done by noon
Better when her eyes of green looking back at me
That fell in love at twenty-three
Are still mine to this day
Yeah, I'm just better that way

Yeah, I'm better

Yeah, I'm just better that way
