Lyrics of 'Different For Girls (Feat. Elle King)' by Dierks Bentley

She don't throw any t-shirt on
And walk to a bar
She don't text her friends and say
I gotta get laid tonight

She don't say, it's okay
I never loved him anyway
She don't scroll through her phone
Just looking for a Band-Aid1

It's different for girls
When their hearts get broke
They can't tape it back together
With a whiskey and Coke

They don't take someone home
And act like it's nothing
They can't just switch it off
Every time they feel something

A guy gets drunk with his friends
And he might hook up
Fast forward through the pain
Pushing back when the tears come on
But it's different for girls

She don't sleep all day
And leave the house a wreck
She don't have the luxury to let herself go
She won't call just to curse from a wall, she can push
When the going gets tough, yeah
The guys they can just act tough

It's different for girls
When their hearts get broke
They can't tape it back together
With a whiskey and Coke

They don't take someone home
And act like it's nothing
They can't just switch it off
Every time they feel something

A guy gets drunk with his friends
And he might hook up
Fast forward through the pain
Pushing back when the tears come on
But it's different for girls

It's different for girls
Nobody said it was fair
When love disappears
They can't pretend it was never there

A guy gets drunk with his friends
And he might hook up
Fast forward through the pain
Pushing back when the tears come on
When the going gets tough, yeah
The guys they can just act tough
So tough
It's different for girls
It's different for girls
