I Wouldn’t Do That If I Were You
by Dave Undis and Michael Skotte
VERSE
I see you eyeing up that country girl.
You’re thinking you might wanna give her a twirl.
Her smile warm and friendly, eyes big and bright,
Her short short shorts sure are mighty tight.
The only thing more dangerous than all those curves
Is that country boy standing right next to her.
I know what you’re thinking, she’s powerful cute.
But I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
CHORUS
No, I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
Messing with a country boy’s girl is a crazy thing to do.
He don’t look like much, but he’ll mess you up.
No, I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
VERSE
You’ve got city muscles built in pretty gyms.
He’s got home grown muscles hidden all over him.
They come from bailing hay and chopping logs,
Digging ditches and slopping hogs.
He’s been thrown by a horse, he’s been kicked by a mule,
He’s been chased by a bull. He can handle you.
It ain’t for me to tell you what to do.
But I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
CHORUS
No, I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
Messing with a country boy’s girl is a crazy thing to do.
He don’t look like much, but he’ll mess you up.
No, I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
BRIDGE
I know she looks nice, but take my advice.
If you’re thinking of hitting on her, think twice.
CHORUS
No, I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
Messing with a country boy’s girl is a crazy thing to do.
He don’t look like much, but he’ll mess you up.
No, I wouldn’t do that if I were you.

Great song! Very professional production. I can only think of one very minor comment. I would have said, “He can sho’ ‘nuff handle you” to keep from having the singer stretch “handle” to fit. I think that would also amplify the point. This one belongs on the radio!
