美國鄉村樂女王［蕾芭．麥肯泰］──中板鄉村曲──［Why Do We Want (What We Know We Cant Have)／我們為什麼想要(我們知道我們不能擁有的東西)］

Some come for the music
Some for romance
You gotta be with the boy that brought you to the dance
Then across the room comes a casual glance
And you be making some dime even half the chance

Now some like to look
And some like to touch
All the things that they cant have
Way too much
Some like to get real close to the flame
once you feel the heat
You know theyre never the same

Why do we want
What we know we cant have
Why dont we want
Whats in the palm of our hands
Why we always looking
At whats just out of our grasp
Why do we want
What we know we cant have

Well Susie was out driving her new corvette
She hadnt made that second payment yet
She rear ended a Semi
But not by choice
She was a rubbernecking a new Rolls Royce
