"Girls I Date" lyrics

"Girls I Date"

I don't own no three piece suit
Some old jeans and a new pair of of boots
A clean shirt, that's dressing up for me

I don't own no new Cadillac
I drive an truck with a dog in the back
I got 'em both back in 2003

Got an old guitar I learned how to play
I ain't Merle Haggard and I ain't George Strait
But I'm close enough for the girls I date

Six Pack and a box of red wine
Barbeque and a bag of pork rinds
A can of worms and two fishin' poles

Lakeside with the tailgate down
Nobody for miles around
We'll jump in if it ain't too cold

Some girls will probably say
That's not romantic, we'll maybe it ain't
But it's close enough for the girls I date

I'm just an ordinary southern man
Nobody's gonna change me cause I am what I am
I wanna find a girl that'll settle down some day
But that's still a few years away
And that's close enough for the girls I date

She might be a blonde or brunette
Not sure cause I ain't found her yet
There's one thing I know
We're gonna live in the woods
No neighbors no neighborhood
Dead end of an old dirt road

It may not sound like prime real estate
'Cause the towns thirty miles away
But that's close enough for the girls I date

I'm just an ordinary southern man
Nobody's gonna change me 'cause I am what I am
I wanna find a girl that'll settle down some day
But that's still a few years away
That's close enough for the girls I date

Close enough for the girls I date
