You Shouldn't Have To
I know you can buy your own drinks, you can open your own door
You could dance all by yourself out on that hardwood floor
I know that you can drive, but you make that shotgun seat look good
Just because you can, girl, doesn't mean you should
You shouldn't have to, yeah, that's how my daddy raised me
Treat a woman like a lady, yeah, that's just what I'll do
I'll buy you flowers, I'll take you somewhere every summer
You'll never have to wonder if I'll always love you
'Cause you shouldn't have to
There's a standard of perfection that the world's got you believing
That you need to put on more make-up, oh, but baby, you don't need it
I'm starting to see as I get a little older
That you think you gotta carry the weight of the world on your shoulders
You shouldn't have to, yeah, that's how my daddy raised me
Treat a woman like a lady, yeah, that's just what I'll do
I'll buy you flowers, I'll take you somewhere every summer
You'll never have to wonder if I'll always love you
'Cause you shouldn't have to
You shouldn't have to, yeah
You shouldn't have to, yeah, that's how my daddy raised me
Treat a woman like a lady, yeah, that's just what I'll do
I'll buy you flowers, I'll take you somewhere every summer
You'll never have to wonder if I'll always love you
'Cause you shouldn't have to, yeah
You shouldn't have to, oh yeah
You could dance all by yourself out on that hardwood floor
I know that you can drive, but you make that shotgun seat look good
Just because you can, girl, doesn't mean you should
You shouldn't have to, yeah, that's how my daddy raised me
Treat a woman like a lady, yeah, that's just what I'll do
I'll buy you flowers, I'll take you somewhere every summer
You'll never have to wonder if I'll always love you
'Cause you shouldn't have to
There's a standard of perfection that the world's got you believing
That you need to put on more make-up, oh, but baby, you don't need it
I'm starting to see as I get a little older
That you think you gotta carry the weight of the world on your shoulders
You shouldn't have to, yeah, that's how my daddy raised me
Treat a woman like a lady, yeah, that's just what I'll do
I'll buy you flowers, I'll take you somewhere every summer
You'll never have to wonder if I'll always love you
'Cause you shouldn't have to
You shouldn't have to, yeah
You shouldn't have to, yeah, that's how my daddy raised me
Treat a woman like a lady, yeah, that's just what I'll do
I'll buy you flowers, I'll take you somewhere every summer
You'll never have to wonder if I'll always love you
'Cause you shouldn't have to, yeah
You shouldn't have to, oh yeah
