Sharon Jones and The Dap-Kings - The Reason Lyrics

This little beauty went out to my summer camp
The beast was shy but I smiled at her the moment that she bowled
Senior year of high school didn't ask her out to prom but she stole my heart
And blew my birthday candles out of control
You ain't never seen nothing the way I see her
The only reason why I'm with her is because you raised her right
She picks me up when I'm down and she makes me laugh
Heck why not be with someone who loves her country music
And her papa treats me like my second dad
It's only 100 reasons I can think of if you gave me permission to marry your daughter
This little shotgun turned the music station on
To country Nash FM her favorite song was playing start to the end
No doubt, it was Chris Lane with all them very big big plans
She don't know what I got hidden under my chest
Never thought she was gonna be my whole world
But I got so many reasons why I'm with her
cause she knows I have her back
I pick her up when she's down
And I make her laugh
Why not be with someone who writes his country music
And his momma loves her like she knows her best
It's only 1,000 reasons I can think of
If you gave me permission to marry your daughter
I love your daughter, like your my second father
I couldn't be any farther even if I wrote you a card
To list 10,000 reasons why I'm with her, is because you raised her right
She picked me up when i'm lost and I found myself glad
That now I'm gonna be someone who loves her country music
And see her walk down the aisle with her dad
It's only a million reasons I can think of
If you gave me permission to marry your daughter
If you gave me permission to marry your daughter
Your Daughter
