"This Ain't It"

Baby, how'd you end up here?
In a Texas town, in a wedding gown with a near beer
Baby, how'd you go so wrong?
And you don't belong but I bet they all think you're sincere

[Chorus 1:]
I've known you since your eyes were blue
And I'd die before I'd lie to you
And this ain't it, baby
This ain't it, baby
Lord knows I like to roll the dice
And I don't give the best advice
But this ain't it, baby
This ain't it, baby

Remember when you fell so hard
You were seventeen, he was a libertine with a black car
Remember how it fucked you up
You were acting tough with a fake ID in the Crow Bar

[Chorus 2:]
I've know you for your whole damn life
You're more than just some rich man's wife
And this ain't it, baby
This ain't it, baby
You know that there'd be hell to pay
If your mama was alive today
And this ain't it, baby
This ain't it, baby

Baby, let me take you home
You'll love the place, I got extra space and I stay gone
Tell him what's on your heart
And the hardest part will be looking away from his cell phone

[Chorus 3:]
Well, I ain't always been around
I built you up and I let you down
But this ain't it, baby
This ain't it, baby
I've known you since your eyes were blue
I'd die before I'd lie to you
But this ain't it, baby
This ain't it, baby

[Outro:]
Baby, how'd you end up here?
Oh, baby, how'd you end up here?
Oh, baby, how'd you end up here?
Oh, baby, how'd you end up here?
Baby, how'd you end up here?
Oh, baby, how'd you end up here?
Oh, baby, how'd you end up here?
Oh, baby, how'd you end up here?
