Girl in It

At the car wash on the corner There's a boy about 17 Spending every ashtray, quarter Trying to get that Chevy clean If he plays his cards right By eight o'clock tonight There'll be a girl in it And he'll put on a slow one She'll play hard to get Make him work all night For that front porch kiss When he goes home to sleep And drifts into a dream There'll be a girl in it They're why they make porch swings and half carat rings Carolina sunsets and California Kings If your heart's on fire If everything's spinning If you're going out of your mind I bet there's a girl in it There's a Romeo in an airport Dozen roses in his hand Waiting by the window For that big ol' bird to land 'Cause that 737 Dropping down from heaven's Got a girl in it They're why they make porch swings and half carat rings Carolina sunsets and California Kings If your heart's on fire If everything's spinning If you're going out of your mind I bet there's a girl in it Ooh, yeah There's a fool on a bar stool Soaking up regret Knows he oughta slow down But he ain't done it yet 'Cause there's something in that glass That makes him forget the past With that girl in it They're why they make JD and neon lights Smoke rolling slow while that sad steel slides If your heart's on fire If everything's spinning If you're going out of your mind I bet there's a girl in it Girl in it
