lyrics

I met a girl at the rodeo
I didn’t even really wanna go
But they wouldn’t let me say no

Redneck girls just ain't my style
But she's got a crooked little smile
Like she knows things you don’t know

She said that she liked the band
So i reached out and took her hand

Can I have this dance
Just give me a chance
To be the best mistake you ever make
We make our own beds
Like a wise man once said
You miss every shot that you don't take

Grew up in the friend zone
A recipe for dying alone
I guess I’m pretty dense

When a girl is on my mind
Shoot my own foot every time
Wreaks hell on your confidence

You could say that I have a knack
For saying things that you can't take back

Can I have this dance
Just give me a chance
To be the best mistake you ever make
We make our own beds
Like a wise man once said
You miss every shot that you don't take

Can I have this dance
Just give me a chance
To be the best mistake you ever make
