Sure Be Cool If You Did
Blake Shelton Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was gonna keep it real like chill like only have a drink or two
But it turned into a party when I started talking to you
Now you're standing in the neon looking like a high I wanna be on
Baby, it's your call
No pressure at all

You don't have to throw back your pretty pink lemonade shooter
And lean a little closer
You don't have to keep on smiling that smile that's driving me wild
And when the night is almost over
Meet me in the middle of a moonlit Chevy bench seat
And do a little bit of country song, hanging on
You don't have to keep me falling like this
But it'd sure be cool if you did

You can't shoot me down 'cause you've already knocked me dead
Got me falling apart with my heart talking out of my head
Let your mind take a little back road just as far as you wanna go
Baby, I'll do
Whatever you wanna do, wanna do

You don't have to throw back your pretty pink lemonade shooter
And lean a little closer
You don't have to keep on smiling that smile that's driving me wild
And when the night is almost over
Meet me in the middle of a moonlit Chevy bench seat
And do a little bit of country song, hanging on
You don't have to keep me falling like this
But it'd sure be cool if you did

Have a night that you'll never forget
And now you're standing in the neon looking like a high I wanna be on

You don't have to throw back your pretty pink lemonade shooter
And lean a little closer
You don't have to keep on smiling that smile that's driving me wild
And when the night is almost over
Meet me in the middle of a moonlit Chevy bench seat
And do a little bit of country song, hanging on
You don't have to keep me falling like this




But it'd sure be cool if you did
Yeah, it'd sure be cool if you did

Overall Meaning

In "Sure Be Cool If You Did," Blake Shelton is singing about a night out with a girl, and the connection they share as the night goes on. Although he went out with the intention of keeping it low-key with just a drink or two, he finds himself drawn to the girl he's talking to and the night quickly turns into a party. He's taken with her and tells her that it's her call, no pressure at all. He doesn't want her to do anything she's not comfortable with, and in fact, he tells her that she doesn't have to do anything specific to keep him interested.


The chorus of the song, where the title comes from, is essentially him telling the girl that he's falling for her and hopes that she feels the same way. While it's not necessary for her to go out of her way to keep him interested or make a move, it would be cool if she did.


The lyrics illustrate the excitement and anticipation of a budding romance, and the idea that sometimes it's the small things that can make a big difference.


Line by Line Meaning

I was gonna keep it real like chill like only have a drink or two
I planned to keep things simple and relax with a drink or two


But it turned into a party when I started talking to you
The moment I started conversing with you, things got more interesting and enjoyable


Now you're standing in the neon looking like a high I wanna be on
You look so attractive under the neon lights and I'm drawn to you


Baby it's your call, No pressure at all
I leave the decision to you and don't want to pressure you in any way


You don't have to throw back your pretty pink lemonade shooter
You don't need to impress me by drinking or showing off


And lean a little closer
You don't need to make any special moves or gestures


You don't have to keep on smiling that smile that's driving me wild
Your smile is already wonderful, you don't need to force it any further


And when the night is almost over
As the night draws to a close


Meet me in the middle of a moonlit Chevy bench seat
Let's meet in the middle of a Chevy truck seat under the moonlight


And do a little bit of country song, hanging on
We can enjoy some country music together while holding each other tight

But it would be really amazing if you did


You can't shoot me down 'cause you've already knocked me dead
I'm already head over heels for you, so there's no need to reject me


Got me falling apart with my heart talking out of my head
You have me feeling so unstable and nervous that my heart is speaking for my head


Let your mind take a little back road just as far as you wanna go
Let your thoughts wander and take you wherever you want to go


Baby, I'll do, Whatever you wanna do, wanna do
I'm ready to do whatever you want to do, without any hesitation


Have a night that you'll never forget
Let's make tonight unforgettable


And now you're standing in the neon looking like a high I wanna be on
You continue to look amazing under the neon lights and I still want to be with you


Yeah, it'd sure be cool if you did
Yes, it would be really amazing if you wanted to be with me too

who ever does not like this song they don't understand the lyrics. Just close your eyes and listen to every one word he is singing. Then I bet you y'all will love it. And if you still don't you don't know Blake Shelton music or even country music
