You Belong With Me (In This Deer Stand)
Alex (TikTok Country Session)
Description
A charming, tongue-in-cheek country anthem about unrequited high school love, reimagined for the modern outdoorsy girl. It's a playful blend of heartbreak and humor, where Realtree camo and deer stands replace cheerleading and Friday night lights. Think Taylor Swift meets a hunting expo, with a healthy dose of TikTok-inspired country twang.
Lyrics
[Intro] (Spoken) "This one’s for every girl who’s ever brought hot hands instead of a date… and knows the difference between a spike and a doe." [Verse 1] You’re on the phone with your girlfriend, she’s upset She’s goin’ off about somethin’ that you said She don’t get your huntin’ jokes like I do I'm in my tree stand, it's a typical Tuesday mornin' Wearing camo flannel, dreamin' ‘bout the day you wake up and find That what you’re lookin’ for has been here the whole time [Pre-Chorus] She's talkin' 'bout dresses, and dance floor romance I'm zeroing my scope, takin' a chance 'Cause I know your heart, boy, it's wild and untamed She's playin' a game, while I'm callin' your name [Chorus] If you could see that I’m the one who understands you Been here all along, why can’t you see? You belong with me, standin’ by the tailgate You belong with me! [Verse 2] You wear a ball cap to graduation, she wears pearls She's probably complainin' 'bout runnin' her world While I'm fixin' fence and checkin' game cams late at night This small town ain't big enough for both of our plights Dreamin' 'bout the day you finally realize That her lip gloss can't compare to the sunrise in my eyes [Pre-Chorus] She's talkin' 'bout diamonds, and fancy restaurants I'm skinning a buck, givin' it all I've got 'Cause I know your soul, boy, it's rugged and free You're lookin' at me, but you just can't see [Chorus] If you could see that I’m the one who understands you Been here all along, why can’t you see? You belong with me, standin’ by the tailgate You belong with me! [Bridge] Hey, whatcha doin’ with a girl like that? She wears high heels, I wear Realtree hats! She talks 'bout designers, I talk about racks Come on, baby, cut her loose and don't look back! [Chorus] If you could see that I’m the one who understands you Been here all along, why can’t you see? You belong with me, standin’ by the tailgate You belong with me! [Outro] You belong with me, under this big ol’ sky You belong with me… (Fade with a final banjo riff)
