Mr. Atlanta

Met a man in Nashville with a sweet Southern drawl

He smelled of leather and alcohol

He played his guitar just like he played me

With zero affection, he gave me the gift of rejection

Met a guy in Chicago, he wore his heart on his sleeve

A sure fire good time until I had to leave

He'd called me on the phone, but I was never at home

He taught me a lesson, that I gots to be present

So Mr. Atlanta from south Alabama

It's true that we've only just met

And I don't know if I love you

But I know, yeah I know, I want to

Yeah, I want to

Kissed a boy from my hometown twenty years of age

Although in spirit, he seemed twenty eight

We swam in the moonlight baring more than our souls

I learned I could go there and I learned that I could care

So Mr. Atlanta from south Alabama

It's true that we've only just met

No I don't know if I love you

But I know, yeah I know I want to (I know, I know, I know, I know)

I want to, yeah

I kept on falling for the wrong kind of love

I kept on falling but it just wasn't enough

I got so used to a broken, jagged, crooked heart

But now I thank my lucky stars

For Mr. Atalanta from south Alabama

It's true that we've only just met

And I don't know if I love you

But I know, yeah I know (I know, I know, I know, I know)

For Mr. Atalanta from south Alabama

It's true that we've only just met

And I don't know if I love you

But I know, all I know is I want you (I know, I know, I know, I know)
