Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Baby, you come knockin' on my front door
Same old line you used to use before
Just said, yeah, well, what am I supposed to do?
I didn't know what I was gettin' into
[Chorus]
So you had a little trouble in town
Now you're keepin' some demons down
Stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around
[Verse 2]
It's hard to think about what you've wanted
It's hard to think about what you'd lost
This doesn't have to be the big, "Get even"
This doesn't have to be anything at all
[PreChorus]
I know you really wanna tell me goodbye
I know you really wanna be your own girl
[Chorus]
Baby, you could never look me in the eye
Yeah, you buckle with the weight of the word
Stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around
[Verse 3]
People runnin' 'round loose in the world
Ain't got nothing better to do
Make a meal of some bright-eyed kid
You need someone lookin' after you
[PreChorus]
I know you really wanna tell me goodbye
I know you really wanna be your own girl
[Chorus]
Baby, you could never look me in the eye
Yeah, you buckle with the weight of the word
Stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around
[Outro]
Stop draggin' my heart around
Stop draggin' my heart around
Stop draggin' my heart around
Stop draggin' my heart around
