She Hates Me is the lead single of Dierks Bentley’s upcoming 11th album, Broken Branches. In this song, Bentley talks about how much she loves a girl and how he believes they’d spend the rest of their lives together. However, it only seems like a foolish delusion because the girl happens to hate eve...
[Verse 1]
She loves her mama, don't do drama, heart of gold, salt of the earth
Holds her whiskey, knows her Whitley, talkin' old school every word
She's an angel like if L.A. was a town in Tennessee
And she'd be mine except for just one little thing
[Chorus]
She hates me
My hair, my truck, my dog, my music makes her crazy
She done been there, done that, ain't coming back, no maybes
Thought one day we'd be on some acres raising babies
She should be falling, only problem is
She hates me
[Verse 2]
I'm pretty likable in spite of all the things she told her friends
I thought we hit it off until she called to say, "Don't call again"
I'da bet that we were headed for a set of wedding bands
There's just one little hiccup in my plans
[Chorus]
She hates me
My hair, my truck, my dog, my music makes her crazy
She done been there, done that, ain't coming back, no maybes
Thought one day we'd be on some acres raising babies
She should be falling, only problem is
She hates me
[Bridge]
Yeah, we were meant to be, she don't know it yet
But just wait and see, even though she says
She hates me
[Chorus]
She hates me
My hair, my truck, my dog, my music makes her crazy
She done been there, done that, ain't coming back, no maybes
Thought one day we'd be on some acres raising babies
She should be falling, only problem is
She hates me
[Post-Chorus]
She hates me
She hates me
[Outro]
Hey, I don't think she likes you
Yeah, it's kinda starting to feel like that

We were goofing around with this idea before diving into our next ‘serious’ song, really just trying to make each other laugh. It just fell out, and I didn’t think much more about it after that.
It really came to life in the studio, and then my kids were requesting it and then I was getting texts f...
