Came The Closest
I cut my hair off, I wore a tie
Woke up at 7:00, came home at 5:00 for a while
I traded whiskey for Miller Lite
And I know your mama calls me polite
Mr. Right
Aw, but that ain't right
'Cause I always gotta know what's behind the other door
I'm never gonna be that straight-laced, Sunday-morning man you were looking for
Nobody's ever tied me down in a clapboard house
With some kids and a bed of roses
But you came the closest
We never married 'cause I never asked
I left the diamond under the glass
Someday you'll be glad
'Cause you'll find somebody who shaves every day
When your dad comes around, he'll know what to say
I just ain't that way, I just ain't that way
'Cause I always gotta know what's behind the other door
I'm never gonna be that straight-laced, Sunday-morning man you were looking for
Nobody's ever tied me down in clapboard house
With some kids and a bed of roses
But you came the closest
Moving on is the only thing I know how to do
But if I could've stood still, then I would have stood still with you
But I always gotta know what's behind the other door
I'm never gonna be that straight-laced, Sunday-morning man you were looking for
Nobody's ever tied me down in clapboard house
With some kids and a bed of roses
But you came the closest
You came the closest
Woke up at 7:00, came home at 5:00 for a while
I traded whiskey for Miller Lite
And I know your mama calls me polite
Mr. Right
Aw, but that ain't right
'Cause I always gotta know what's behind the other door
I'm never gonna be that straight-laced, Sunday-morning man you were looking for
Nobody's ever tied me down in a clapboard house
With some kids and a bed of roses
But you came the closest
We never married 'cause I never asked
I left the diamond under the glass
Someday you'll be glad
'Cause you'll find somebody who shaves every day
When your dad comes around, he'll know what to say
I just ain't that way, I just ain't that way
'Cause I always gotta know what's behind the other door
I'm never gonna be that straight-laced, Sunday-morning man you were looking for
Nobody's ever tied me down in clapboard house
With some kids and a bed of roses
But you came the closest
Moving on is the only thing I know how to do
But if I could've stood still, then I would have stood still with you
But I always gotta know what's behind the other door
I'm never gonna be that straight-laced, Sunday-morning man you were looking for
Nobody's ever tied me down in clapboard house
With some kids and a bed of roses
But you came the closest
You came the closest
