Better Than Me

(Album: This Town - 2021)

Yeah, rumors travel fast
In our backwater town
Heard you moved on from the past
And got a new future now
Yeah, I heard you been saying
That he's a good guy
Everybody wants to believe you
Hell, so do I

You say he's all about you
Couldn't live without you if he tried
That you've really moved on
You've got all you're wanting in your life
You say he's all the things
Everything that I couldn't be
Yeah, that's what you're saying
Girl, I been praying he's better than me, yeah

Yeah, you're the kind of angel
That deserves a God-fearing man
Not some barroom signer
In a traveling band
You need a guy that knows his roots
And comes running home
Not a fella that lives out a suitcase
Yeah, and leaves you alone

You say he's all about you
Couldn't live without you if he tried
That you've really moved on
You've got all you're wanting in your life
You say he's all the things
Everything that I couldn't be
Yeah, that's what you're saying
Girl, I been praying he's better than me

Woah, woah
Woah-woah, woah

You say he's all about you
Couldn't live without you if he tried
That you've really moved on
You've got all you're wanting in your life
You say he's all the things
Everything that I couldn't be
Yeah, that's what you're saying
Girl, I been praying he's better than me (Better than me)
Yeah, that's what you're saying
I'm just praying he's better than me
