"Heard About Me" lyrics

The grapevine spreads like wildfire in this town
If something goes down, you can bet everybody finds out
For a couple of weeks, we've been low-key
But everybody saw you kiss me last night at the party
The night when you walked in
I could tell this town's been talkin'

I don't know what you heard about me
But I know how work gets 'round
You can dig up some dirt on me
But no, baby, that ain't who I am now
I took some wrong turns, made some mistakes
I'ma shoot you straight like a shot of whiskey
Just give me one chance, girl, I don't need two
I don't wanna be what you heard about me

With you (with you)
Yeah, I don't wanna be what you heard about me
With you (with you)

Girl, you got a smile that'll settle a wild heart down
The old me never knew what new me's feelin' right now
I've never had nothin' worth stickin' 'round for
If our heart breaks tonight, it won't be yours

I don't know what you heard about me
But I know how work gets 'round
You can dig up some dirt on me
But no, baby, that ain't who I am now
I took some wrong turns, made some mistakes
I'ma shoot you straight like a shot of whiskey
Just give me one chance, girl, I don't need two
I don't wanna be what you heard about me

With you (with you)
Yeah, I don't wanna be what you heard about me
With you (with you)

I got a few scars on my last name (scars on my last name)
Just 'cause the town don't change don't mean I can't (mean I can't)

Yeah, I don't know what you heard about me
But I know how work gets 'round
You can dig up some dirt on me
But no, baby, that ain't who I am now
I took some wrong turns, made some mistakes
I'ma shoot you straight like a shot of whiskey
Just give me one chance, girl, I don't need two
I don't wanna be what you heard aboutme

With you (with you)
Yeah, I don't wanna be what you heard about me
With you (with you)
