Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm a rebel
I've been known to dance with the devil
So how'd I get up on your level?
You're an angel
Sent from heaven down to me
[Verse 2]
I'm rough around the edges
You're a snapshot at perfection
I was headed in the wrong direction
I was reckless
Now, I just got one question
[Verse 3]
Why me?
Out of everybody, baby
Why me?
You could have picked anybody
Why me?
But I see you looking at me
I gotta ask, what did I do?
To get to be the one you gave your heart to
Walk up in a party on my arm
Who would have thought you will wanna wake up
Everyday beside me
Baby, why me?
[Verse 4]
I remember night one
Looking around for the right one
Saw you sittin' there sad, well, I'm done
And I walked over even though you're out of my league
[Verse 5]
You were diamonds in the sky, I was dirt on the plow
You're all American pretty, I'm a one horse town
First smile you gave me, I was thinking it then
And I'm still thinking it now
[Verse 6]
Why me?
Out of everybody, baby
Why me?
You could have picked anybody
Why me?
But I see you looking at me
I gotta ask, what did I do?
To get to be the one you gave your heart to
Walk up in a party on my arm
Who would have thought you will wanna wake up
Everyday beside me
Baby, why me?
[Verse 7]
Yeah, baby, why me?
Baby, why me?
[Verse 8]
Why me?
What did I do right?
Why me?
Kissing you good night
You say, you'll never let me go
Oh, it's crazy, girl, I guess I'll never know
[Verse 9]
Why me?
Out of everybody, baby
Why me?
You could have picked anybody
Why me?
But I see you looking at me
And I gotta ask, what did I do?
To get to be the one you gave your heart to
Walk up in a party on my arm
Who would have thought you will wanna wake up
Everyday beside me
Baby, why me?
[Verse 10]
Oh, baby, why me?
Baby, why me?
Baby, why me?
Baby, why me?
