Double Heart Lyrics

He was sweet as cotton candy
At a county fair
Well, he's a cold drink of water
With butterscotch hair

He swore that he loved me
Well, I guess he probably did
'Cause when he rolled up his sleeve one day
I saw my name next to his

A new tattoo stingin' like a hornet
Two little hearts like a big red warning
I wasn't lookin' for a permanent thing
First comes the ink then comes the ring

Burn, burn, baby
I bet we could've made a
Bunch of sweet memories
You should have slowed down, mister
Moving like a twister's
Just a little fast for me

So now it's 0 to 60
And if you ever miss me
I'm right there on your arm
Don't you cry
I'll leave you something behind
Skid marks and a double heart

Well, he's a tough bronc buster
I bet he sleeps in his boots
Well, he tried to throw a rope around me
Right out of the shoot, yeah

He swore that he loved me
Well, I reckon he probably did
'Cause when he rolled up his sleeve one day
I thought, here we go again

A new tattoo burning like a brand
Two little hearts on my rodeo man
I wasn't lookin' for a permanent thing
First comes the ink then comes the ring

Burn, burn, baby
I bet we could've made a
Bunch of sweet memories
You should have slowed down, mister
Moving like a twister's
Just a little fast for me

Well, now it's 0 to 60
And if you ever miss me
I'm right there on your arm
Don't you cry
I'll leave you something behind
Skid marks and a double heart

I'm a free bird
Hey, hey, hey

A new tattoo, whistling Dixie
Two little hearts ain't gonna get me
I'm not lookin' for a permanent thing
So don't you put ink 'til I take the ring

Burn, burn, baby
I bet we could've made a
Bunch of sweet memories
You should have slowed down, mister
Moving like a twister's
Just a little fast for me

Well, now it's 0 to 60
And if you ever miss me
I'm right there on your arm
Don't you cry
I'll leave you something behind

Skid marks and a, skid marks and a
Skid marks and a double heart

Well, I'm a free bird
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey

The Band Perry is an American country music band composed of Kimberly Perry (lead vocals, rhythm guitar, piano) and her two brothers: Reid Perry (bass guitar, background vocals) and Neil Perry (mandolin, drums, accordion, background vocals). They were born in Jackson,Mississippi and moved to Mobile,AL as early teens;eventually moving to Greeneville , Tenn. The trio owes its unique sound to its parents. "Most dads would be rocking their kids to sleep singing 'Rock-a-bye Baby,' " Kimberly says. "Our dad was singing us Rolling Stones songs, and our mom loves country. They definitely cross-pollinated our musical palette.." The trio teamed with Garth Brooks' manager, Bob Doyle, in 2008 and a year later it signed with Republic Nashville.
The band released its debut single "Hip to My Heart" in 2009 and their second single; "If I Die Young", was released June 7, 2010. It peaked at #19 on the Hot 100, making it their biggest hit.
