"That Don't Sound Like You" is the third release from Lee Brice's latest album I Don't Dance. Written by Rhett Akins, Ashley Gorley , and Lee Brice the song plays into a common country music theme of an old relationship. However, with this Lee Brice ballad there is a refreshing angle. The primary sentiment is not self-serving but one of genuine concern for a special person who has changed.
Girl, I’m glad you called, first heard you talk
Took me a second cause I couldn’t hear your drawl
And that don’t sound like you
No, that don’t sound like you
I know it’s been a while, I don’t mean to pry
But when I asked you if you’re happy I didn’t hear a smile
And that don’t sound like you
Nah, that ain’t the girl I knew you always sounded like
Truck tires on a gravel road
Laughing at the world, blasting my radio
Tin balls flashing in the water
Doing whatever whenever you wanted
What did he do?
‘Cause you don’t sound like you anymore
Your pretty brown hair, you always loved it
Guess he didn’t like it so you just cut it
And that don’t sound like you
Nah, that ain’t the girl I knew you always sounded like
Truck tires on a gravel road
Laughing at the world, blasting my radio
Tin balls flashing in the water
Doing whatever whenever you wanted
What did he do?
‘Cause baby you don’t sound like you anymore
Oh, anymore
That town, that job, that guy
You can leave them behind, girl, you know you’re better than that
If you want to come back, you can come back
Baby, come back to
Truck tires on a gravel road
Laughing at the world, blasting my radio
Tin balls flashing in the water
Doing whatever whenever you wanted
What did he do?
‘Cause you don’t sound like you
Give me the girl I knew,
‘Cause you don’t sound like you anymore
Mm, anymore
Girl, I’m glad you called, first heard you talk
Took me a second cause I couldn’t hear your drawl
