(Verse 1)
Saw you walk in, boots like you own the place,
A smile on your lips, but a little wild in the face.
I’m sippin’ my whiskey, watchin’ you cross the room,
My heart starts racin’, you light it up like the moon.
You look like trouble, but hell, what can I say?
Might just be worth the mess I’m gonna make today.

(Chorus)
You look like trouble, but I’ll take my chances,
With you in those jeans, baby, all I see is chances.
You’re givin’ me that look, and I can’t say no,
Come a little closer, let’s see where this goes.
Yeah, you look like trouble, but you might be just my type,
So come on over, baby, let’s see if we can’t get something right.

(Verse 2)
You wink at me, I know just what that means,
It’s a game we’re playin’, no in-betweens.
I’m a little reckless, and so are you,
We’re both in this bar with nothing to lose.
You’re the fire, and I’m the gasoline,
But damn if I don’t love the way you lead.

(Chorus)
You look like trouble, but I’ll take my chances,
With you in those boots, baby, all I see is chances.
You’re givin’ me that look, and I can’t say no,
Come a little closer, let’s see where this goes.
You’re a little reckless, but that suits me fine, so come on over, let’s cross that line.

(Bridge)
The room’s gettin’ smaller, or maybe it’s just us,
I can feel the heat, and I’m ready to trust.
You’re leanin’ in, I’m fallin’ fast,
Don’t care if this night is all that we have.

(Chorus)
You look like trouble, but I’ll take my chances,
With you in those boots, baby, all I see is dances.
You’re givin’ me that look, and I can’t say no,
Come a little closer, let’s see where this goes.
You’re not the safe bet, but you’re catching my eye, come on over, baby, let’s give it a try.

(Outro)
You look like trouble, but trouble’s never felt this good,
Let’s take a chance, baby, like we know we should.
