At the car wash on the corner
There's a boy about seventeen
Spending every ashtray quarter
Trying to get that Chevy clean
If he plays his cards right
By 8 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
Girl in It
