Been checkin' my phone too many nights
Waitin' on you like a long red light
I look at me then, and I look at me now
Maybe my boys know what they're talkin' about
I've tried bein' someone that I ain't
Now, baby, I just can't, so

Take the sad song string off of this old guitar
Take a three-by-five off the dash of my car
Take my black jean jacket, no, don't even ask
Take whatever you want, baby, I want me back
All the things that you changed that I liked about me
All the wild child whiskey nights ain't runnin' free
Count me this nice, but not near as bad
As I miss who I was, baby, I want me back

Yeah, I want that
Too late at the bar, lead foot on the gas
Go a little too far, too hard, too fast
And, girl, I hope you find somebody
Out there a little more not like me

Take the sad song string off of this old guitar
Take a three-by-five off the dash of my car
Take my black jean jacket, no, don't even ask
Take whatever you want, baby, I want me back
All the things that you changed that I liked about me
All the wild child whiskey nights ain't runnin' free
Count me this nice, but not near as bad
As I miss who I was, baby, I want me back

Back to me back then
Back to me back when
They're wonderin' where he's at
Baby, I want me back

Take the sad song string off of this old guitar
Take a three-by-five off the dash of my car
Take my black jean jacket, no, don't even ask
Take whatever you want, baby, I want me back
All the things that you changed that I liked about me
All the wild child whiskey nights ain't runnin' free
Count me this nice, but not near as bad
As I miss who I was, baby, I want me back

Baby, I want me back
Baby, I want me back
I want me back
