Before you met me


You say I'm the kinda girl who makes you finally settle down
Put a down payment on a little white house
Mama's gonna love me, first row every Sunday, kinda Christian
No cousin
Tell me I'm the reason that you cleaned up your act
Wouldn't have a future if I knew your past
Biggest regret is that you wish you would've met me sooner
But if you knew her

I was a trainwreck, hot mess, too many cigarettes
Bangin’ with some drugstore lipstick
I was a weeknight drinker, karaoke singer
Top of every preacher's prayer list
The way I used to be, I can guarantee
Two weeks in, you would’ve left me
Looking at the old me, anything but holy
Glad you didn't know before you met me

I would've chewed you up and I would've spit you out
One night mistake that you tell your friends about
Time was on my side, we'd have ended before we even started
Back when

I was a trainwreck, hot mess, too many cigarettes
Bangin' with some drugstore lipstick
I was a weeknight drinker, karaoke singer
Top of every preacher's prayer list
The way I used to be, I can guarantee
Two weeks in, you would've left me
Looking at the old me, anything but holy
Glad you didn't know before you met me

Didn't know no better, wasn't thinking 'bout forever
Didn't know myself before you met me

I was a trainwreck, hot mess, too many cigarettes
Bangin' with some drugstore lipstick
I was a weeknight drinker, karaoke singer
Top of every preacher's prayer list
The way I used to be, I can guarantee
Two weeks in, you would've left me
Looking at the old me, anything but holy
Glad you didn’t know before you met me

Before you met me

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
