Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got the whiskey
She gets the good year bottle of wine
I got the neon
She gets the back porch strung up lights
I got the white lies, she gets the truth
She gets the version I wanted of you
[Chorus]
If I was good enough to be your last call
Why is she the one you call your mama about?
After seein' all the b.s. I saw
Why is she the one who sees your best side now?
If I'm the first thing on your mind
The second she lets go
Then why ain't I the girl you're taking home?
[Verse 2]
I saw the pictures
And she gets to cross that county line
I bet she's riding shotgun
In your dad's old '85
I bet she met your grandma, you took her to church
She gets the cleaned up, and I got the dirt
And it hurts 'cause
[Chorus]
If I was good enough to be your last call
Why is she the one you call your mama about?
After seein' all the b.s. I saw
Why is she the one who sees your best side now?
If I'm the first thing on your mind
The second she lets go
Then why ain't I the girl you're taking home?
[Bridge]
Yeah, take her home
Where you grew up
Baby, why ain't I the one you love?
[Chorus]
If I was good enough to be your last call
Why is she the one you call your mama about?
After seein' all the b.s. I saw
Why is she the one who sees your best side now?
If I'm the first thing on your mind
The second she lets go
Then why ain't I the girl you're taking home?
[Outro]
Then why ain't I the girl you're taking home?
Then why ain't I the girl you're taking home?
