“Right Track / Wrong Man” is another refinement on the subtle shimmer they’ve been executing consistently since 2014. “Try to keep my mouth shut, throw me right up,” Christie Simpson and Josh Burgess duet in the chorus on this one. “Every time you shove, I just get stuck.”
“‘Right Track / Wrong Man...
[Verse 1]
A little distance on my day off
I never claimed that I was different
And you were talking 'bout yourself but
I could've sworn it was a mantra
[Pre-Chorus]
Try to keep my mouth shut, throw me right up
Every time that you shove, I just get stuck
Telling me to get tough, testing my faith
But I couldn't complicate it
[Chorus]
I'm telling you you've earned it (I'm telling you)
When we were feeling so set (When we were feeling so set)
I need another day to (I need another day to)
Abandon all the trust and take away the love I gave you
[Verse 2]
Cut me up and keep me open
Oh, it won't hurt me in the morning
I'll leave the lightness for the long days
For when I really have my head straight
[Pre-Chorus]
You were on the right track with the wrong man
You know you're a good girl, g-g-gone bad
You could tell me bad things, no, I don't mind
And I could forget about it
[Chorus]
I'm telling you you've earned it
When we were feeling so set
I need another day to
Abandon all the trust and take away the love I gave you
[Post-Chorus]
And we were bleeding sunset (And we were bleeding sunset)
But I would never go back (But I would never go back)
To when I used to play you (To when I used to play you)
I never was enough, but you say I'm the one to change you
