[Intro – short instrumental, electric guitar riff establishes the groove | clean country-rock guitar, light drums kick in] (driving) [Verse 1 – storytelling, steady | electric guitar under the vocal, locked groove] She walked in like July heat, denim cutoffs, red lipstick smile Laugh that cut through the jukebox, turned every head for a while We’d tear up the backroads till the gas light was blinking red She could drink half the bar under the table and still look like sin in the bed [Verse 2 – same energy, slightly harder edge | guitars dig in a little] She’d start a fight just to feel the rush, throw a right when the night went still No reason needed, just that fire in her eyes and that iron will I’d catch the bruise and the apology in the same breath And somehow I’d still be the one saying “don’t leave yet” [Chorus – bigger, open, still country-rock | full band, guitars and drums push] I’m still hung up on that right-hook girl The one who could love me and burn the whole world Timid never stood a chance against that wild, wild heart I left for quiet, but quiet just tore me apart Yeah, I’m still obsessed with my right-hook girl [Verse 3 – more reflective but keeps the drive | groove continues, slight space under the voice] There was a redhead, soft-spoken, never raised her voice She made the coffee quiet and never made me choose One night the silence got too loud and I crossed that line But every time I closed my eyes it was still her face, not mine [Bridge – heavier, almost confessional over the band | guitars thicken, drums stay locked] I’d take the black eye and the 2 a.m. screaming matches Over a lifetime of peace that never scratched the surface She was chaos with a body made for trouble And I was the fool who kept coming back for double [Chorus – same size, slightly wider] I’m still hung up on that right-hook girl The one who could love me and burn the whole world Timid never stood a chance against that wild, wild heart I left for quiet, but quiet just tore me apart Yeah, I’m still obsessed with my right-hook girl [Outro – guitar lead or riff over the groove, then settle | electric guitar takes it, band holds then fades] Right-hook girl… Still got her name on my tongue Right-hook girl… And I ain’t done
