Cowboy Casanova
Carrie Underwood Lyrics

You better take it from me
I can see that you're interested in that boy, but trust me when I say that he's not good for you.

That boy is like a disease
He's toxic and addictive, and being around him will only bring you down.

You're runnin' and tryin' and tryin' to hide
You're trying to resist him and ignore your feelings for him, but it's not working.

And you're wondering why you can't get free
You're confused as to why you can't shake him off and move on.

He's like a curse, he's like a drug
He's addictive and dangerous, in the same way that a curse or drug is.

You get addicted to his love
You're hooked on the attention and affection he gives you, even though you know it's not good for you.

You wanna get out, but he's holding ya down
You want to break free from him, but he's somehow keeping you in his grasp.

'Cause you can't live without one more touch
Despite everything, you still crave his touch and the way he makes you feel.

He's a good time cowboy Casanova
He's charming, fun-loving, and a bit of a ladies' man.

Leaning up against the record machine
He's cool and casual, leaning against a jukebox or similar machine.

He looks like a cool drink of water
He seems refreshing and appealing, like a cold drink on a hot day.

But he's candy-coated misery
Although he seems sweet and tempting, he's actually a source of pain and suffering.

He's the devil in disguise
He's not who he appears to be - he's actually manipulative and dangerous.

A snake with blue eyes
He's deceptive and sneaky, with eyes that seem innocent but hide a darker truth.

And he only comes out at night
He's secretive and operates under the cover of darkness.

Gives you feelings that you don't wanna fight
He makes you feel things you're not sure you're ready to deal with or confront.

You better run for your life
You need to get away from him as soon as possible and never look back.

I see that look on your face
I can tell that you're not convinced or ready to listen to me.

You ain't hearing what I say
You're not really listening to my warning or taking it seriously.

So I'll say it again 'cause I been where ya been
I'll repeat it because I've been in your shoes and know what it's like to fall for someone dangerous.

And I know how it ends, you can't get away
I know from experience that it's hard to escape from someone like him once you're in too deep.

Don't even look in his eyes
Avoid making eye contact with him, as he's adept at using his gaze to manipulate and charm you.

He'll tell you nothing but lies
Don't believe anything he says, as he's a master of deceit and manipulation.

And you wanna believe that you won't be deceived
You want to believe that you're smart enough to avoid falling for his tricks, but it's not that simple.

If you listen to me and take my advice
If you trust me and heed my warning, you'll save yourself a lot of pain and heartache.

Run, run away, don't let him mess with your mind
Get as far away from him as possible, before he does any more damage to your mental state.

He'll tell you anything you wanna hear
He's a smooth talker who knows how to say whatever he needs to in order to get what he wants.

He'll break your heart, it's just a matter of time
He's not capable of true affection, and will inevitably hurt you in the end.

But just remember
Don't forget that I tried to warn you and steer you in the right direction.

Oh, you better run for your life
I can't stress it enough - get out while you still can, before it's too late.
