lyrics

At the Franklin booth by the back door light

You smirked at the joke before I got to the punch line tonight

You tapped your spoon on the chipped coffee mug

Like you knew the whole setup before I said one word, bud

And I watched that grin climb up your face

Right past the part where most folks wait

You were already halfway there

With a dimple showing in your cheekbone there

You laugh too soon

You laugh too soon

You laugh too soon

You laugh too soon

And I fall right in, every time

In your truck by the curb at the Piggly Wiggly sign

You laughed at my pause before I could finish my line

Your hand on the wheel, your keys in the tray

And that little breath you take when the joke’s on the way

It’s like you can read my mind

One beat ahead, every time

You hear the turn before it lands

And there you go, grinning in advance

You laugh too soon

You laugh too soon

You laugh too soon

You laugh too soon

And I fall right in, every time

Now I know that look, the corner of your mouth

The second you get it and the answer comes out

You’re smiling before the story’s done

And I can’t help loving that you’re the one

You laugh too soon

You laugh too soon

You laugh too soon

You laugh too soon

And I fall right in, every time
