Verse 1
At SGixteen I Thought Freedom Meant A TaCnk Of GasolGine,
A SeGt Of Car Keys And NoDwhere To Be.
That SpGeedometer Shows It Goes One HunCdred And Ten
TruGst MDe One Day You'll Want To "ReGmember BackD When"
Might Be TCempting To Test It, But That WouldGn't Be Good
Turns Out JGust ’CauDse You Can Don’t Mean You ShoGuld.

Verse 2
In GCollege I Learned Beer Comes 2C4 To A CGase,
And You Can SGtay Out All Night If You’re WDilling To Waste
Half Of SGaturday Morning Swearin’ Off FCriday Night,
LearGned A Little Moderation Makes The Next DaDy Feel Right.
You Can Have ACnother Round, And Yeah, It Might TGaste Good,
But JuGst ’CausDe You Can,  Don’t Mean YoGu Should.

Chorus
Just C’Cause You DCan Don’t Mean You GShould,
You Gotta CLearn When It's RDight And When It Ain'Gt Good
There’s A CTime To Hold Your DGround,
A TiGme DTo Take That EmShot,
Wisdom’s CKnowing What You Need
And That's Not ADlways What You WanGt.

Verse 3
I LeaGrned Being Right Ain’t Worth Making SComebody SmGall,
And HavinGg The Last Word Ain’t Winning MuDch At All.
You Can Say WhGat’s On Your Mind, But That DCon’t Make It WGise,
Sometimes GStrength Is Being Silent And SDwallowing Your Pride.
There'll Be TiCmes You Want To Argue,  Cuz You Feel GMisunderstood
Yeah, JuGst ’Cause You CDan, Don’t Mean You SGhould.

Verse 4
But As I GGot Older, I Learned The OtherC Side To This GSong
You SiGt Back And Think About The DDays Long Gone
That DreamG Sitting On The Shelf Ain’t Gonna CChase ItGself,
And That “SoGmeday” You Keep Waiting For Ain’t Promised To NDo One Else.
Were You ScCared To Fail,  Did You TGhink You Couldn't?
Just ’CaGuse You HaDven’t, Don’t Mean You SGhouldn’t.

Verse 5
Sometimes We PEmray For Something And We CDon't Even SGee
Like WhGen A Friend Gave Me A Phone Number When ID Was Only 23
We Think WeEm Know Better,  And Yet The AnsCwer's Right ThGere
I Finally CGalled The Number And Found Out It Was The DAnswer To Prayer
Weeks LCater I Went On That Blind Date,  Can't IGmagine If Didn't
JusGt Cuz YDou Haven't, Don't Mean YouG Shouldn't

Chorus
JusCt ’Cause You CDan Don’t Mean You GShould,
And JuCst ’Cause You HDaven’t Don’t Mean You GShouldn’t.
There’s A TCime To Walk ADway,
A TGime To Make Your MEmove,
A LitCtle Self-Control,
A Little SDomething Left To Prove.
Some FirCes Burn You DDown, SomGe Light DUp Where You’re EmGoing—
GrowCing Up Is Mostly Learning Which DIs Which Before You Know It.

Final Chorus
JuCst ’Cause You DCan Don’t Mean YGou Should,
GoCtta Know When TooD Far Just AinG't Good
But Don't LCet Fear Or Being LDazy, Keep You FromG SomethiDng That CoEmuld
JusCt ’Cause You Haven’t DonD’t Mean You ShGouldn't
