“The One You Brag About” lyrics

I wanna be the one you brag about

I hear you talk about your truck like it's a woman
I hear you talk about the fish you almost caught
I hear you talk about the Braves and your granddaddy
And the time you jumped the creek and you got caught
You call me "baby" in the kitchen when it's quiet
You hold my hand when nobody's there to see
But when your buddies ask you who you're seeing
You say you're keeping your options, you're free

I don't need a diamond
I don't need a song
I just want to hear you say it
When I'm not around

I wanna be the one you brag about
At the bar with all your buddies out
Show 'em pictures on your phone
I wanna be the one you brag about

Brag about
Yeah, brag about me

Your mama doesn't know my middle name
Your sister thinks I'm someone from the store
I've been sleeping in your T-shirts for a year now
And I'm tired of being hidden like a chore
I want you to be proud of me like your team
I want you to tell the story of the day we met
I want to hear it secondhand from someone
"Man, he won't shut up about her yet"

I don't need a diamond
I don't need a song
I just want to hear you say it
When I'm not around

I wanna be the one you brag about
At the bar with all your buddies out
Show 'em pictures on your phone
I wanna be the one you brag about

Tell the waitress at the diner
Tell the preacher, tell the town
Tell your mama, tell your brother
Tell the whole world out loud
Or tell me you won't
And I'll go

I wanna be the one you brag about
At the bar with all your buddies out
Show 'em pictures on your phone
I wanna be the one you brag about

Brag about
Yeah, brag about me

I wanna be the one you brag about

At the bar with all your buddies out
