Jennifer Nettles - That Girl

  

Lyrics to That Girl by Jennifer Nettles

  A friend gave me your number To tell you watch your lover’s tracks See I always kind of liked you So, I wanna have your back There is a good chance by the time you hear this The story’s gonna say That I came on to him But it was never quite that way I knew he was good looking Maybe too good to be true But when he kissed me in that alley I could tell there was a you I don’t want to be that girl With your guy To fool you Make you cry Wreck it all For one night To be with him when he should be with you I don’t want all the dirty looks The headlines So, I called you To explain why I wound up With your guy When I don’t wanna be that girl I know boys can be promiscuous Yeah, that’s just what they do But this involves the both of us Yeah, it’s our business too So, I thought I’d call to tell you It was never in my plan I’m not the scarlet Devil I don’t want to take your man Imagine how surprised I was When he got up to leave It wasn’t my name on his lips No, he didn’t call for me He didn’t say, Jolene I don’t want to be that girl With your guy To fool you Make you cry Wreck it all For one night To be with him when he should be with you I don’t want all the dirty looks The headlines So, I called you To explain why I wound up With your guy When I don’t wanna be that girl We all know how the moral of the story goes Be careful what you reap because you reap what you sow I’m calling ’cause I really thought you should know Even though he’s being that guy I don’t want to be that girl With your guy To fool you Make you cry Wreck it all For one night To be with him when he should be with you I don’t want all the dirty looks The headlines So, I called you To explain why I wound up With your guy When I don’t wanna be that girl
