Don't Mistreat Her (Remastered)
Delicate piano and fingerpicked acoustic set an intimate stage with expressive steel guitar fills and falsetto vocals in the intro. Verses remain sleek and airy. Choruses burst with lush three-part harmonies. Punchy drops and blends of soft country and pop rock incorporate arpeggiated keys, twangy funk guitar, dynamic timbales, and accordion accents.

Lyrics
Verse
I see her smile, but it’s not for me
She’s tied to a love I’ll never set free
A truth I can’t unwind
But she’s yours, she’s not mine
Prechorus
I keep my distance, though it cuts me deepppppppppp
But I’ve got a prayer I’ll always keeppppppppppp
Chorus
Don’t mistreat her, don’t make her cryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
She’ll come knocking on my door, she’ll be mine
Don’t mistreat her she’s the only one
I’ll be here waiting when she’s done, ooooooooooyaaaaaa
Verse
A heart like hers deserves more
But your grip on her needs to be restored
If you can’t love her right let her go
Love belongs to the one who’s silent, the one that knows
Prechorus
I won’t betray what she chose to believeee, oooooooooooo
But I’ll carry her light when I leave
Chorus
Don’t mistreat her, don’t make her cryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
She’ll come knocking on my door, she’ll be mine
Don’t mistreat her she’s the only one
I’ll be here waiting when she’s done, ooooooooooyaaaaaa
Bridge
I can't have her but I still care
I see the cracks you're blind if you go there
If you can't love her right let her go
Let her go let her go
Don’t mistreat her, it shows, it showssssssssssssssssss
