  • If your mind's as cluttered as your kitchen sink
    If your heart's as empty as your diesel tank
    If all your white t-shirts have stains
    If you've got some guts and got some ink, well then
    We should be friends

    If you borrow dresses like you borrow time
    If you dream all day and drink all night
    If you're looking for love but willing to fight
    Over men and momma's and Miller Lite, well then
    We should be friends

    I don't know you well but I know that look
    And I can judge the cover 'cause I read the book
    On losing sleep and gaining weight
    On pain and shame and crazy trains

    If you paint your nails while you cut your loss
    If you like acting like you're the boss
    If everything your daddy says
    Is something you can put stock in, well then
    We should be friends (come on!)

    I don't know you well but I know that look
    And I can judge the cover 'cause I wrote the book
    On losing sleep and gaining weight
    On pain and shame and crazy trains

    One, two, three

    If you use alcohol as a sedative
    And bless your heart as a negative
    If you ride your white horse like the wind
    If what you see is what you get, well then
    Oh, we should be friends
    Alright

    Wohoo
    Wohoo
    Wohoo

    Well then
    Oh, we should be friends

    Wohoo
    Wohoo
    Wohoo
    Wohoo

    Well then
    Oh, we can be friends Writer/s: MIRANDA LAMBERT
