"Adrenaline Rush"


I met a girl she had a cat 
And she was Sassy just like that
She played with me like a ball of string
This ain't gonna be no easy fling

The day we met was a Summer's night
She was feisty and full of fight
She licked beer foam from her sexy lip
Thought I'd take her for a skinny dip

But don't forget she had a cat
And she was sassy just like that
It was hot and smelled like rain
Feeling liquid fire running through my veins
You know, that adrenaline rush

She went with me to the swimming pool
Her heart was country, she was sorta cool
Her eyes so blue and hair deep black
Her tan was gold and I made her laugh

Said, I've got some tickets if you'd like to play
Come with me and we'll see the game
The way her fingers tapped her chin
And then she smiled that wicked grin

But don't forget she had a cat
And she was sassy just like that
It was hot and smelled like rain
Feeling liquid fire running through my veins
You know, that adrenaline rush

And so began our private dance
Football, whisky, and a long romance
Tailgate parties to start the day 
Dancing and playing the night away

It could've been perfect she was mighty fine
I remember the day she stole church wine
Playing songs all night on a loop
And putting popcorn in tomato soup

Feeling liquid fire running through my veins
But she was more than adrenaline rush

I wonder why I turned my head
And I'd find myself in another's bed
I learned my lesson way too late
I was a fool who tempted fate

I broke your heart and made a mess
At your dance when my finger ripped your dress
But you got me back when you stole my car
And you made me walk really far

I met a girl she had a cat 
And I loved her sassy just like that
The only girl who could cause me pain 
Felt like liquid fire running through my veins 
The only girl who could cause me pain
Felt like liquid fire running through my veins
I loved a girl who had a cat
And I loved her sassy just like that
