Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I can hook a trailer on a two-inch hitch

I can shoot a shotgun, I can catch a fish

I can change a tire on the side of a road

Yeah, I know a few things a man oughta know

[Chorus]

How to know when it's love

How to stay when it's tough

How to know you're messin' up a good thing

And how to fix it 'fore it's too late

And yeah, I know a boy

Who gave up and got it wrong

If you really love a woman, you don't let her go

Yeah, I know a few things a man oughta know

[Verse 2]

If I can't have it, I can do without

I can hang a picture same as I can take it down

And how to keep it hidden when a heart gets broke

Yeah, I know a few things a man oughta know

[Chorus]

How to know when it's love

How to stay when it's tough

How to know you're messin' up a good thing

And how to fix it 'fore it's too late

And yeah, I know a boy

Who gave up and got it wrong

If you really love a woman, you don't let her go

Yeah, I know a few things a man oughta know

[Chorus]

How to know when it's love

How to stay when it's tough

How to chase forever down a driveway

How to never let it get there in the first place

And yeah, I know a boy

Who gave up and got it wrong

If you really love a woman, you don't let her go

Well, I know a few things a man oughta know

Yeah, I know a few things a man oughta know
