Lyrics
[Intro - 808 kick drops over banjo, uptempo] We fight beautifully, yeah we fight beautifully Thirty-four years and she still gets to me [Verse 1 - rap-sung, loose and confident] She's got an opinion and I've got one too And sometimes those opinions got nothing to do With logic or reason or who's actually right We just both need to win so we light up the night Thermostat's a battlefield, dinner is a war I said turn it up she said what do you want it for I said where you wanna eat she said I don't care Then she definitely cared and I better beware [Pre-Chorus - building] We don't fight dirty, we don't fight mean We just fight loud like you know what I mean Like two people who know every button to push But neither one's willing to give it a shush [Chorus - full wobble trap energy, fiddle stabs] We fight beautifully Oh we fight beautifully She comes at me swinging and I love it truly We fight beautifully Go toe to toe She knows I love her and I want her to know That when the smoke clears baby I'm still here We fight beautifully after thirty-four years [Verse 2 - storytelling, a little faster] Sometimes it's the stress that just needs somewhere to land And I'm standing right there so she takes my hand And wrings it out good till we've both said our piece Then we look at each other like — okay, release She thinks I'm wrong and she is usually right But I can't just say that in the middle of a fight So I circle around and I take the long way And somehow we both end up at the same place anyway [Pre-Chorus] We don't fight dirty, we don't fight mean We just fight loud like you know what I mean Like two people who know every button to push But neither one's willing to give it a shush [Chorus] We fight beautifully Oh we fight beautifully She comes at me swinging and I love it truly We fight beautifully Go toe to toe She knows I love her and I want her to know That when the smoke clears baby I'm still here We fight beautifully after thirty-four years [Bridge - drops to sparse, almost spoken, genuine] And then it gets quiet And we both know We went too hard And it's time to let go She says I'm sorry And she means every word And I say I'm sorry And I mean what she heard And we're back to us again Just like that Thirty-four years and we know where it's at [Chorus - biggest drop, full wobble energy] We fight beautifully Oh we fight beautifully She comes at me swinging and I love it truly We fight beautifully Go toe to toe She knows I love her and I want her to know That when the smoke clears baby I'm still here We fight beautifully after thirty-four years [Outro - half time, cocky and warm] Thermostat, dinner, who forgot what Thirty-four years and we still got that gut Fight beautifully, fight beautifully Ain't nobody else I'd rather fight with, truly [808 and banjo fade]
