You Know Me Better Than That Lyrics
Baby, since you left me, there's somebody knew.
She thinks I'm perfect, I swear.
She likes my body, my class and my charm.
She says I've got a confident air.
She respects my ambition, thinks I'm talented too,
But she's in love with an image time is bound to see through.
(Chorus):
Oh/But you know me better than that.
You know the me that gets lazy and fat.
How moody I can be, all my insecurities.
You've seen me lose all my charm, you know I was raised on a farm.
Oh, she tells her friends I'm perfect
And that I love her cat, but you know me better than that.
I miss picnics and blue jeans and buckets of beer-
Now it's ballet and symphony hall.
I'm into culture, clean up to my ears;
It's like wearing a shoe that's too small.
Oh I caught her with an issue of Brides magazine,
Starin’ at dresses and pickin’ out rings.
(Chorus)
Oh she tells her friends I'm perfect and that I love that cat,
Oh but you know me better than that.
She thinks I'm perfect, I swear.
She likes my body, my class and my charm.
She says I've got a confident air.
She respects my ambition, thinks I'm talented too,
But she's in love with an image time is bound to see through.
Oh/But you know me better than that.
You know the me that gets lazy and fat.
How moody I can be, all my insecurities.
You've seen me lose all my charm, you know I was raised on a farm.
Oh, she tells her friends I'm perfect
And that I love her cat, but you know me better than that.
Now it's ballet and symphony hall.
I'm into culture, clean up to my ears;
It's like wearing a shoe that's too small.
Oh I caught her with an issue of Brides magazine,
Starin’ at dresses and pickin’ out rings.
Oh but you know me better than that.

absolutly nothing.. can you tell i cant spell.. or maybe i just dont like the backspace thinhg. you suck..
"she tells her friends im perfect and that i love that cat... Oh, but you know me better then that"
Haha What a great song. George Strait is amazing. The guy just tells stories about life and they are all soo true.
to me the overall meaning is obvious- new relationship w/ higher class female...
and then, deeper, he's speaking to his ex...it seems like theyre more friends now, and he's just sharing the joke w/ her, but under it all, he still misses her b/c he could be himself w/ her...and not worry about playing a role.
