[Verse 1: Eric Church]
Yeah I see you over there making' eyes at me
Like you don't want to get caught
Now where'd you get the cowboy on your arm
And where you want me to drop him off
I see you trying' to hide that fire inside
But your hold me back's almost gone
Yeah it's about time I let cowboy know
That I'm a going to take you home

[Chorus: Eric Church]
Yeah so keep on looking' at me that way
That way we can move this along
I can tell you what I got here on my mind
But I think you already know
Yeah and now's the time for you to turn around
If you want me to walk away
Or you can keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on lookin' at me that way
(Po-po-po-po-po-po-pooopoo)

[Verse 2: Eric Church]
Yeah I can tell by the way I took your hand
And then asked you to dance
He went all John Wayne in front of his friends
And said I don't think so man
Yeah all blowed up like a loud mouth pup
Never been in a junkyard fight
But if you're going to bark at the big dog boy
Then you're going to get to feel the bite

[Chorus: Eric Church]
Yeah so keep on lookin' at me that way
That way we can move this along
I can finish sweepin' her off her pretty little feet
And your buddies can carry you home
You can back off and let her dance with me
And live to fight another day
Or you can keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on lookin' at me that way
(Po-po-po-po-po-po-pooopoo)

[Verse 3: Eric Church]
Yeah I love the way the sun's coming' through
And bouncing' off the small of your back
Yeah I know if I call in sick today
Boss man will have a heart attack
Yeah I knew it was over when she rolled over
And said baby why don't you stay
And keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on looking' at me that way
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on looking' at me that
Looking' at me that, looking' at me that way

Eric Church is an American country music singer-songwriter from Granite Falls, North Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a business degree in 2000, Eric became engaged to a Spanish teacher from Lenior, NC whose father attempted to deter his musical aspirations by offering him a corporate career in Denver. After turning down her father’s offer, Church’s ex-fiance broke the engagement, giving Church motivation to move to Nashville and begin focusing solely on his music. Recollections of this turning point in Church’s life are heard throughout his lyrical portfolio (most prominently in “Those I’ve Loved”).

After a period of being overlooked by record labels and producers, Church was eventually signed to Capitol Records in 2006, making his debut with the album, Sinners Like Me. The album produced four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, “How ‘Bout You,” “Two Pink Lines,” “Guys Like Me,” and the album’s title track.

His second album, 2009’s Carolina, produced three more “Smoke a Little Smoke,” “Love Your Love the Most,” and “Hell on the Heart.”
