Better When I Do

I don't always have to take those back roads When it's quicker on a paved four-lane I don't have to have my hand out the window Ooh, just ridin' that way I don't always have to crack me a cold one At 5 o' clock when the work day ends And girl I don't have to be holdin' you When the sun sets But it's better when I do Have you sitting right next to me, girl When you're in it, it's a better view Life's more than a little sweeter With something so pretty to hold onto Girl, if I had it my way You'd be right beside me From Friday to Friday I don't have to end off my days wrapped up kissin' on you But it's better when I do I don't have to turn my hat round backwards When the ball game's on the line And I don't have to drink the first cup of coffee On the porch outside I don't have to speed into those hard turns Ain't gotta play with that little white line Just so you lean over a little bit closer Onto my side But it's better when I do Have you sitting right next to me, girl When you're in it, it's a better view Life's more than a little sweeter With something so pretty to hold onto Girl, if I had it my way You'd be right beside me From Friday to Friday I don't have to end off my days wrapped up kissin' on you But it's better when I do Girl, it's better when I do It's better when I do have you Hanging on my arm Wish every day could end And every day could start with you Just like this And I don't always get to But it's better when I do Have you sitting right next to me, girl When you're in it, it's a better view Life's more than a little sweeter With something so pretty to hold onto Girl, if I had it my way You'd be right beside me From Friday to Friday I don't have to end off my days wrapped up kissin' on you But it's better when I do Yeah yeah Oh, it's better when I do
