What I Wouldn’t Do Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The proof is in the whiskey and the champagne in your hand
You smilin' in that picture's got me thinkin' about the damn I didn't give
And how I let a good thing slip right through my hands
If I could do it all again

[Chorus]
I wouldn't stand there on the porch
With you and your 4Runner runnin'
I wouldn't call your bluff when you packed it up
Said, I shoulda seen it comin'
I wouldn't watch that cloud of dust
And just keep on actin' tough
I wouldn't tell my friends, "It's all good now I got more time for fishing."
I wouldn't need an empty bed
To know how bad I miss you in it
No, I don't know how to make it up to you
But I damn sure know just what I wouldn't do

[Verse 2]
The list of reasons why she's gone is longer than this tab
My mama's still mad at me, I'm still kickin' myself for that
'Cause I know she's always right, I messed it up good, didn't I?
I shoulda bought the ring
And did the thing damn thing
Yeah, if I could hit rewind
[Chorus]
I wouldn't stand there on the porch
With you and your 4Runnеr runnin'
I wouldn't call your bluff when you packed it up
Said, I shoulda seen it comin'
I wouldn't watch that cloud of dust
And just keep on actin' tough
I wouldn't tell my friеnds, "It's all good now I got more time for fishing."
I wouldn't need an empty bed
To know how bad, I miss you in it
No, I don't know how to make it up to you
But I damn sure know just what I wouldn't do

[Bridge]
To stop those goodbye tears from fallin'
Get those bags out of the car and your clothes back in the closet

[Chorus]
I wouldn't stand there on the porch
With you and your 4Runner runnin'
I wouldn't call your bluff when you packed it up
Said, I shoulda seen it comin'
I wouldn't watch that cloud of dust
And just keep on actin' tough
I wouldn't tell my friends, "It's all good now I got more time for fishing."
I wouldn't need an empty bed
To know how bad, I miss you in it
No, I don't know how to make it up to you
But I damn sure know just what I wouldn't do
Yeah, I know what I wouldn't do

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
