Not A Dive Bar Gal
[Spoken Intro – confident, teasing] I don’t usually spend my nights in places like this. Sticky floors, cheap beer… But then again… I don’t usually find a man who looks at me like I’m the top-shelf whiskey. [Verse 1] Neon flickers, dust on the jukebox Your boots tap the rhythm of a heartbreak song You’re nursing that bottle, tryin’ to play it cool But I see every secret you think I can’t pull [Pre-Chorus] I’m no hometown story But boy, I’m worth the headline You keep staring my way Like you’re already mine [Chorus] I’m not a dive bar gal — but I’ll make an exception tonight If you keep lookin’ at me like you’re ready to fight For a chance, for a dance, for a little bit of sin You want a real woman? Baby, let’s begin I ain’t stayin’ long, but I’ll stay if you call I’m not a dive bar gal But I might be yours after all [Verse 2] I sip top-shelf dreams from a plastic cup The bartender smirks ‘cause he knows what’s up You’re acting like trouble with that lazy grin But lucky for you — I like trouble I can win [Pre-Chorus] This place ain’t my style But you’re a whole different view Dive bars ain’t my scene But honey, you sure are [Chorus] I’m not a dive bar gal — but I’ll make an exception tonight If you keep lookin’ at me like you’re ready to fight For a chance, for a dance, for a little bit of sin You want a real woman? Baby, let’s begin I ain’t stayin’ long, but I’ll stay if you call I’m not a dive bar gal But I might be yours after all [Bridge – smoky, intimate] So turn down the noise Let the sparks take control If you want my name You better bet your soul Got one night to prove What I already know Dive bar or not I’m stealin’ the show [Final Chorus – powerful and bold] I’m not a dive bar gal — but look what you made me do Standing right here, wanting nothing but you Cheap beer, loud band, and a last-call kiss A girl could get used to nights like this I ain’t stayin’ forever — but baby, I’ll fall I’m not a dive bar gal But I might be yours after all
