Lyrics

Verse

I've been haulin' hay since the day I was born

Sittin' on this porch with a cold one 'til dawn

Friends all got rings, kids runnin' 'round

Me? I'm still single, boots kickin' up dust in this town

Verse

Mama says "boy, when you gonna settle down?"

I laugh it off quick, pour another round

Never chased a girl past a Saturday night

One look in her eyes, and I'm boltin' outta sight

Chorus

If I ever found love, I wouldn't know what to do (what to do)

Would I hold her too tight or let her slip right through? (slip right through)

Buy her a rose or a shotgun rack?

Dance in the kitchen or wreck my old truck?

Yeah, if I ever found love

I wouldn't know what to do

Whoa-oh, wouldn't know what to do

Verse

Picture her laughin' in the passenger seat

Windows down wide on a backroad beat

I'd probably fumble the words, spill my beer

Turn up the radio to hide my fear

Chorus

If I ever found love, I wouldn't know what to do (what to do)

Would I hold her too tight or let her slip right through? (slip right through)

Buy her a rose or a shotgun rack?

Dance in the kitchen or wreck my old truck?

Yeah, if I ever found love

I wouldn't know what to do

Whoa-oh, wouldn't know what to do

Bridge

Maybe I'd learn, yeah maybe I'd try

Pull her in close under that big ol' sky

But right now I'm scared, heart racin' like rain

Never been good at this lovin' game

Chorus

If I ever found love, I wouldn't know what to do (what to do)

Would I hold her too tight or let her slip right through? (slip right through)

Buy her a rose or a shotgun rack?

Dance in the kitchen or wreck my old truck?

Yeah, if I ever found love

I wouldn't know what to do

Whoa-oh, wouldn't know what to do

Outro

Yeah, if I ever found love...

Wouldn't know what to do

(Mmm-hmm)
