"Some Girls Do"
Song

"Some Girls Do" is a song written by Mark Miller, and recorded by American country music band Sawyer Brown. It was released in March 1992 as the second (third if "The Walk" is counted) single from their album The Dirt Road. It was a number-one hit in the United States,[1] while it peaked at number 2 in Canada.

Content

The narrator states that some girls don't like boys like him, but "some girls do.". The song begins with a potential object of his affection turning up her nose at his Cadillac as a way of rebuffing his attentions. Another woman witnesses the exchange from her front porch as she's painting her nails. She hints that it takes more than that to attract a woman, and they hook up with one another.

Music video

The music video was directed by Michael Salomon.[citation needed]
