A Woman Like You
Lee Brice Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Last night, outta the blue
Drifting off to the evening news
She said "Honey, what would you do
If you'd never met me"
I just laughed, said "I don't know,
But I could take a couple guesses though"
And then tried to dig real deep
Said, "Darling honestly

I'd do a lot more offshore fishing
I'd probably eat more drive-thru chicken
Take a few strokes off my golf game
If I'd have never known your name
I'd still be driving that old green Nova
I probably never would have heard of yoga
I'd be a better football fan
But if I was a single man
Alone and out there on the loose
Well, I'd be looking for a woman like you"

Well, I could tell that got her attention
So I said, "Oh yeah, I forgot to mention
I wouldn't trade a single day
For a hundred years the other way."
She just smiled and rolled her eyes
'Cause she's heard all of my lines
I said, "Come on girl, seriously
If I hadn't been so lucky

I'd be shooting pool in my bachelor pad
Playing bass in my cover band
Restocking up cold Bud Light
For poker every Tuesday night, yeah
I'd have a dirt bike in the shed
Not one throw pillow on the bed
I'd keep my cash in a coffee can
But if I was a single man
Alone and out there on the loose
Well I'd be looking for a woman like you" mm

She knows what a mess I'd be if I didn't have her here
But to be sure, I whispered in her ear
"You know I get sick deep-sea fishing
And you make the best fried chicken
I got a hopeless golf game
I love the sound of your name
I might miss that old green Nova
But I love watching you do yoga
I'd take a gold band on my hand
Over being a single man




'Cause honestly I don't know what I'd do
If I'd never met a woman like you"

Overall Meaning

The song "A Woman Like You" by Lee Brice is a love song that talks about how the singer's life would have been if he had never met his partner. The song begins with the singer's partner asking him what he would have done if he had never met her. The singer responds by saying that he would have done things like go fishing and eat drive-thru chicken, and maybe improve his golf game. He also mentions that he would still be driving his old car and would not have heard of yoga. The singer also admits that he would have been looking for a woman like his partner if he were still single.


The chorus emphasizes that the singer would still be looking for a woman like his partner, even if he was still single. The second verse reveals more things that the singer would have done if he had never met his partner. He would have spent his time playing pool, playing bass in his cover band, and stocking up on beer for poker nights.

But ultimately, the singer realizes that he wouldn't have wanted any of these things if he had never met his partner. He acknowledges that his partner is responsible for the happiness and the positive changes in his life. He confesses that he doesn't know what he would do without her and that he would choose to be with her over being single.


Overall, "A Woman Like You" is a romantic ballad that expresses gratitude towards the singer's partner and underscores how much she means to him.
