lyrics

Stepped up to the bar next to a lady she looked so fine
I asked her name, she proceeded to ask mine
I was feeling lucky so I ordered a tonic and gin
She pulled out her I phone and started typing something in

Chorus:
She googled me, she googled me
I thought I got lucky at last but she pulled up my shady past
she googled me

She pulled up a web site, homepage of the Texas DMV
She found I had three DUIs and a reckless in 2003
I saw her finger sliding up to a hotspot on the page
She told me that my license was suspended indefinitely

Chorus

She pulled up another web site, the homepage of the CDC
She located a case file and an ugly picture of me
She took a big step sideways, I said honey what could the matter be?
She found out that I had Herpes, A, B, C and D

Chorus

My secrets were out now on a little LCD screen
I said, "Honey it don't look good, but it ain't as bad as it seems.
I've looking for someone to hold for what's left of the rest of my life."
Then she pulled up the Harris County courthouse web page
And found out I had a wife

Chorus

Friends, I got shot down and I know the reason why
It's hard to know the truth anymore and it's impossible to lie
My advice to all you losers with questionable former lives
Don't pick up a woman in a bar that offers free wifi

She's gonna google you, She's gonna google you
You thought you got lucky at last
But she pulled up your shady past
She'll google you
