Good Girl Bad Boy
Florida Georgia Line Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He's ragged on the edge, she's keepin' him holdin' out hope
She's a front pew hallelujah, drop another twenty in the plate
He's on the back row, little hungover, 'bout twenty minutes late
She's a good girl, sky blue turquoise
Fallin' for a bad boy, drivin' that Detroit
Big block, cruisin' up the blacktop
Comin' for a good girl, countin' down the sunset
Never been broke heart, racin' like a Corvette
Got a little wildfire burin' in her angel eyes
Probaly ain't never been lost after midnight
Tryin' to be a good girl, but fallin' for a bad boy
Tryin' to be a good girl, but fallin' for a bad boy
Well she's sundress cotton, he's grease on a Carhartt shirt
She's a candle in the wind, he's a light it up and let it burn
And every time she's with him all she wants to do is kiss him
Starts thinkin' maybe she can fix him and he's thinkin' he'd love to let her try
She's a good girl, sky blue turquoise
Fallin' for a bad boy, drivin' that Detroit
Big block, cruisin' up the blacktop
Turnin' up a corn row, scarecrow, farm house, gravel road
Comin' for a good girl, countin' down the sunset
Never been broke heart, racin' like a Corvette
Got a little wildfire burin' in her angel eyes
Probaly ain't never been lost after midnight
Tryin' to be a good girl, but fallin' for a bad boy
Tryin' to be a good girl, but fallin' for a bad boy
And every time she's with him
She knows she probably oughta quit him
But he don't wanna let her get away
She's a good girl, sky blue turquoise
Fallin' for a bad boy, drivin' that Detroit
Big block, cruisin' up the blacktop
Turnin' up a corn row, scarecrow, farm house, gravel road
Comin' for a good girl, countin' down the sunset
Never been broke heart, racin' like a Corvette
Got a little wildfire burin' in her angel eyes
Probaly ain't never been lost after midnight
Tryin' to be a good girl, but fallin' for a bad boy
Tryin' to be a good girl, but fallin' for a bad boy
Yeah
She's so good, she's so good, she's so good
She's so good, she's so good, she's so good
She's so good, she's so good, she's so good, but fallin' for a bad boy
The song "Good Girl Bad Boy" by Florida Georgia Line describes the attraction between a good girl and a bad boy. The lyrics suggest that the girl is trying to be morally upright with her front pew hallelujah and good girl persona. On the other hand, the guy is a bit ragged, wearing Carhartt shirts, showing up late, and drinking whiskey smoke. Although the girl thinks that she can fix the guy, she knows that she should quit him, yet he doesn't want to let her go. The song's chorus keeps repeating the same line, which says that the girl is trying to be a good girl, but she's falling for a bad boy.
The lyrics portray the typical love story of a good girl drawn to the danger and excitement that comes with loving a bad boy. The contrasting personalities of the characters are bound to lead to obstacles in their relationship. Despite her strong values, the girl is attracted to the guy's rugged persona, and he is drawn to her pure and innocent nature. The song's lyrics suggest that there may be hope for their relationship if they can navigate their differences and find a way to make it work.

One of the many classics from this duo. I see massive success for these lads in future. Sure they are releasing their 4th album this year. Can't wait for the Australian Tour in 2019! This is an unforgettable yet laid back anthem. Be a great version live.
