He was a downtown boy looking for an uptown girl
I was looking to leave my Ivy League world
He’s a guy that always knew what song to sing
I was a wide eyed girl lovin’ what she was hearing
I was mesmerized as I watched him there on stage
A wanna be rockstar and I was buying the whole thing
Yeah, I was buying the whole thing…
He wants to be the Hitman with hits on the radio
He can’t stand the thought of being an average Joe
He says he’s ready for a big big change
He wants to be the Hitman with hits on the radio
We eloped and Momma cried when she saw that ring
But when you’re young you know that ya know everything
He’s a car salesman by day and Kidd Rock by night
Guess it wasn’t enough he started cursing his whole life
Screaming I was the reason he hadn’t got his big break
After one punch and two black eyes I finally saw the light
Yeah, I finally saw the light…
He wanted to be the Hitman with hits on the radio
But when he hit me once it was time for me to go
Now he’s got his big big change
Now he’s the Hitman and living on his own
Well I love my new life in my new town
Sometimes what we want isn’t what we need
Life can make you bitter or better if you let it
It’s a lesson learned and I won’t forget it
Yeah, I won’t forget it…
He wanted to be the Hitman with hits on the radio
But when he hit me once it was time for me to go
Now he’s got his big big change
Now he’s the Hitman and living on his own
Turns out he wasn’t even a good average Joe
Now he’s the Hitman and living on his own
