i said i'd never do a country song, but then again i never thought i'd love you

You got this whole thing for southern accents
and your tan lines are on my mind most nights spent
thinking of how i'm gonna make my next move
cuz after a while i know that my words won't be as smooth
calculating and debating everything you've said
well every word you've spoke i swear somewhere i've read
you're about as unoriginal as knock off brand coke
and i know you've been doing it in thin ropes
across the bathroom sink, your favorite place for nosebleeds
i wanna be like the tissue you to wipe it off, or atleast that's what i think
your brand new diet consists of living off of cigs, coke, and cheerios
but i think there's more to this than treating this all like its a joke
your friends think it's cool to sniff a few lines
well i think it's cooler if you've been listening to mine
baby, i'm trying to take you somewhere
not the bed, but the place where the music's stored in your head
i wanna be the favorite song you'll always come back to
even when you're pissed off or you're feeling blue
i wanna make sure i can always be the cure for you
the cancer doesn't stand a chance by the time i'm through
the thoughts that coagulate like dried blood under your nose
and baby i just want you to know that you're so beautiful
i've got something for you love that the drugs don't
i've got open arms, a big kiss, a blanket and most of all a soul
cuz when the cocaine and cigarettes run out on you
when getting high is the only thing you can do
well, i think you should know, that i'm here for you
put down those drugs, baby i've got alot of hugs
cuz baby you've got your booze and flaws
and in my mind i'm hearing the oohs and ahs
but i think you should just stop
you're fooling yourself, you're too pretty
to be influenced by this shitty city
don't let them tell you what is cool
look at them, they're the biggest fools
nothing but drama and a long list of pointless lovers
baby, you mean so much under my covers
so just take a shower for an hour, clean yourself off
throw away the cocaine and the cigs and the booze too
baby girl, i love you and everything you do
and whoever told you that one lie, well that was false
but this is true
