Backwards Women Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you're down
Crawlin' out your window
And you can't seem to stay
In one place

[Pre-Chorus 1]
We've been thinkin'
'Bout better days
We've been drinkin'
Smiles away

[Chorus]
I, I don't wanna love you, but I'll try
(Try)
Try to stay away from you next time

[Verse 2]
I love backwards women
In the pool halls underneath
The neon sun

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I've been wasted
On the run
I've been chasin'
Troubled ones

[Chorus]
I, I don't wanna love you but I'll try
Try to stay away from you next time

[Bridge]
Every street sign says, "stop, turn around"
I can't help myself, even though it runs me down
Hey!

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Yesterday, show your face against tomorrow
There's a weight that drags you down across the floor

[Chorus]
I, I don't wanna love you but I'll try
(Try)
Try to stay away from you
I, I don't wanna love you but I'll try
Try to stay away from you next time
