Lyrics
[Verse 1] Saw you leaning on that rusted gate, Bootheel tapping like you owned the place. I said “hey,” you said “don’t start,” But your smile was a spark in the tinder of my heart. You laughed low like you’d heard my name, Said “I heard you’re wild”—yeah, I can’t explain. But the way you looked at me right then— Made me wanna prove every rumor again. [Pre-Chorus] You walk in slow like you’re setting a scene, Hands in your pockets, eyes on me. If you’ve got plans for breaking rules— Baby, I learned young not to play it cool. [Chorus] You’re good trouble, don’t pretend you ain’t, Got me grinning like a sinner in the Sunday paint. If I’m going down, it’s a sweet freefall— Call my name and I’ll risk it all. You’re good trouble, pure wildfire, Kicking up dust, taking me higher. I should know better—guess I don’t at all, ’Cause you’re good trouble… and I want it all. [Verse 2] Backroad glow in the August heat, You hop in the truck, put your boots on the seat. Say “drive wherever feels like wrong,” Then crank your voice up in my favorite song. You steal my hat, say “it fits me right,” I say “darlin’, I ain’t starting a fight.” But my pulse is wild, my grip is loose— You’ve always been my favorite excuse. [Pre-Chorus] You tilt your head like you’re calling my bluff, Smirk like “don’t pretend you’re tough.” You want danger with a little charm? Honey, come wrap up in these arms. [Chorus] You’re good trouble, don’t pretend you ain’t, Got me grinning like a sinner in the Sunday paint. If I’m going down, it’s a sweet freefall— Call my name and I’ll risk it all. You’re good trouble, pure wildfire, Kicking up dust, taking me higher. I should know better—guess I don’t at all, ’Cause you’re good trouble… and I want it all. [Bridge] If this gets messy, let it get loud, Let the whole town talk—I’ll make ’em proud. If you’re a storm, then I’ll be the rain, Laughing through thunder, loving the same. Yeah, if you're a flame then I'm gasoline, Light me up, make the world turn green. [Final Chorus] You’re good trouble, don’t pretend you ain’t, Got me painted up in your midnight paint. If I’m going down, it’s a sweet freefall— Say the word and I’ll risk it all. You’re good trouble, pure wildfire, Kicking up dust, taking me higher. Yeah, you’re the warning I still wanna call— You’re good trouble… and I want it all. [Tag] Go on—start something. Go on—start something...with me.
