Lyrics
[verse]
You can offer diamonds, offer stars up in the sky,
But she'll pick a picnic over your fancy alibi.
You've got the money, you've got the flashy car,
But simple love like ours beats any shining star.
[chorus]
She'd rather be with me, walking down some dusty street,
She'd rather be with me, than anyone she'll ever meet.
Go on and try your best, dress it up in gold and lace,
She'd still come running back into my arms' embrace.
[verse]
I don't need a fortune, don't need a fancy name,
Just a sunny morning and her laughing at my games.
You can wine and dine her underneath the chandelier,
But she'll take my old guitar over your whole career.
[chorus]
She'd rather be with me, walking down some dusty street,
She'd rather be with me, than anyone she'll ever meet.
Go on and try your best, dress it up in gold and lace,
She'd still come running back into my arms' embrace.
[bridge]
It ain't about the money, it ain't about the show,
It's about the feeling only two hearts know.
So keep your shiny trophies, keep your empty praise,
I've got the one thing you could never ever change.
[chorus]
She'd rather be with me, walking down some dusty street,
She'd rather be with me, than anyone she'll ever meet.
Go on and try your best, dress it up in gold and lace,
She'd still come running back into my arms' embrace.
