LYRIC FOR SALE

By Millie French

Verse 1
I’m out here practicing my smile in the mirror of my truck
‘Cause to get your attention I will need much more than luck
I’m dressed up to the nines but I’m feeling like a zero
Stepping out of this car and into the bars’ neon glow

Chorus
No, this crowded bar is not my favorite scene
But it’s the only place where you are tonight
The girl of my dreams, yeah, my country queen
So, I’m braving the crowd and the neon lights
Yeah, you’re miles down the road, way out of my league
But I’m praying tonight you’ll be within my reach

Verse 2
I feel like an old pickup truck keeping up with a sports car
With my boots glued to the sawdust floor of this bar
Holding a longneck just to give my hands something to do
The cards are stacked against me ever getting with you

Chorus repeat
No, this crowded bar is not my favorite scene
But it’s the only place where you are tonight
The girl of my dreams, yeah, my country queen
So, I’m braving the crowd and the neon lights
Yeah, you’re miles down the road, way out of my league
But I’m praying tonight you’ll be within my reach

Verse 3
I feel like a flickering porch light trying to match the stars
I’m frozen in the corner, staring at you from afar
So, I’m drinking up the nerve to finally go and talk to you
Just waiting for this liquid courage to tell me what to do

Chorus repeat
No, this crowded bar is not my favorite scene
But it’s the only place where you are tonight
The girl of my dreams, yeah, my country queen
So, I’m braving the crowd and the neon lights
Yeah, you’re miles down the road, way out of my league
But I’m praying tonight you’ll be within my reach
