The multi-Platinum singer has notched two #1 singles at radio (“My Girl” and “Nobody”), as well as Top 5 hit “Hooked.” Following his first career nomination for “Best New Country Artist” at the all-genre iHeartRadio Music Awards and a coveted spot among Country Radio Seminar’s New Faces of Country Music, his Platinum-certified ode to his wife, “Nobody,” earned him a 2021 CMT Music Award for Breakthrough Video of the Year.
Dylan presented the CMT Breakthrough Video of the Year Award at the 2022 CMT Music Awards on CBS. With career streams exceeding 1.3 billion, the Louisiana native has provided tour support for Garth Brooks, Luke Bryan, and Chris Young, among others, cementing him as an in-demand live act.
Livin’ My Best Life, the highly-anticipated follow-up to his chart-topping Nothing To Do Town EP, releases Aug. 5, 2022, and features fiery lead single “New Truck” and viral TikTok ballad “Can’t Have Mine (Find You A Girl).”
Can't Take Her Anywhere
Dylan Scott Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Checking out my girl like I ain′t got a clue
But I do, it's ok
It doesn′t really matter 'cause at the end of the day
She's mine yeah, she′s fine
This ain′t the first time and you ain't the first guy
I can′t take her anywhere, without causing a scene
All the fellas getting jealous up in this bar
It's kinda like I got my own little superstar
Anywhere, that she walks in
People stop and stare, but I don′t care 'cause I know that
She′s a beauty, such a cutie and she don't try
Even blows my mind
I can't take her anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
Anywhere
I turn around, yeah, two shots of crown
The boy thinks he′s got a shot but she′s turning him down
And I laughed, she laughed
Laid a kiss on my lips then sat in my lap
'Cause she′s mine, yeah, she's fine
This ain′t the first time and it ain't the first guy
I can′t take her anywhere, without causing a scene
Everywhere we go she got her own paparazzi
All the fellas getting jealous up in this bar
It's kinda like I got my own little superstar
Anywhere, that she walks in
People stop and stare but I don't care ′cause I know that
She′s a beauty, such a cutie and she don't try
Even blows my mind
I can′t take her anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
Anywhere
I can't take her anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
Anywhere
She′s like a spot light, shining bright
Turns me on like a street light
At midnight in the moonlight, yeah, she's looking so right
She gets to me when she′s next to me
It's hard to breathe, I can't believe she′s mine
I can′t take her anywhere, without causing a scene
Everywhere we go she got her own paparazzi
All the fellas getting jealous up in this bar
It's kinda like I got my own little superstar
Anywhere, that she walks in
People stop and stare but I don′t care 'cause I know that
She′s a beauty, such a cutie and she don't try
Even blows my mind
I can′t take her anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
Anywhere
I can't take her anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
Anywhere
Anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
