[Verse 1: Ashley McBryde]
He helped me change a tire in the Citgo parking lot
He said, "We both could use a beer" and I said, "Hell, why not?"
What started out as one night turned to six months just like that
He never had a ring on, so I never thought to ask

[Pre-Chorus: Ashley McBryde]
Then last night I saw a message on his phone
That said, "Hey, babe, what time you comin' home?"

[Chorus: Ashley McBryde]
I never wanted to be that girl, I never wanted to hate myself
I thought this kind of lonely only happens to somebody else
And being the other one when there's another one, God, this feels like hell
I thought I knew who I was, but it's getting hard to tell
I never wanted to be that girl

[Verse 2: Carly Pearce]
I've heard about those women who didn't have a clue
The ones who made excuses like my mama used to do
And he jumps in the shower just as soon as he gets home
And I spend half an hour going through his phone

[Chorus: Carly Pearce]
I never wanted to be that girl, I never wanted to hate myself
I thought this kind of lonely only happens to somebody else
And being the other one when there's another one, God, this feels like hell
I thought I knew who I was, but it's getting hard to tell
I never wanted to be that girl

[Bridge: Carly Pearce & Ashley McBryde]
Oh, and I feel stupid, I feel cheap
And I feel used, I feel weak

[Chorus: Ashley McBryde & Carly Pearce]
I never wanted to be that girl, I never wanted to hate myself
I thought this kind of lonely only happens to somebody else
And being the other one when there's another one, God, this feels like hell
I thought I knew who I was, but it's getting hard to tell
I never wanted to be that girl (I never wanted to be that girl)

[Outro]
I never wanted to be that girl
Ashley McBryde (Ms. Carly Pearce)
