She comes from silver spoon, golden rule
Private school, never miss Sunday church
And I come from blue-collar, low-dollar
Out here where concrete meets old red dirt
And I don't know what happened
But it sure don't add up on paper
But when I close my eyes late at night
You can bet I thank my maker
She keeps on lovin' me, loves me the way I am
She's not just along for the ride, she's my biggest fan
Lord, it's a little piece of Heaven when we lay down at night
She keeps on lovin' me and I keep on wondering why
She's got a wicked smile, angel eyes
Every guy wantin' to hold her close
She's as pretty as sin
Like the sun sinkin' down on the California coast
She keeps on lovin' me, loves me the way I am
She's not just along for the ride, she's my biggest fan
Lord, it's a little piece of Heaven when we lay down at night
She keeps on lovin' me and I keep on wondering why
I don't know what happened
But it sure don't add up on paper
And as long as she lets me
I'll take her wherever she wants me to take her, oh
She keeps on lovin' me, loves me the way I am
She's not just along for the ride, she's my biggest fan
And it's a little piece of Heaven when we lay down at night
She keeps on lovin' me and I keep on wondering why
She keeps on lovin' me and I keep on wondering why
Wondering Why Video (MV)
"Wondering Why" is a song by American country rock band the Red Clay Strays, released on March 9, 2022 as the second single from their debut studio album Moment of Truth (2022). A sleeper hit, it found success after going viral on the video-sharing app TikTok in late 2023 and is the band's first song to reach the Billboard Hot 100, debuting at number 93 and peaking at number 71.
The Red Clay Strays' guitarist Drew Nix and lead singer Brandon Coleman, along with songwriter Dan Couch, were inspired to write the song by the notion that the band's commitment to success in music had taken a toll on their romantic partners. According to Nix, "We were like, 'Our women have the short end of the stick of this. I wonder why they even like us.'"
Self-released in March 2022 "Wondering Why" began receiving wider exposure when a video of the Red Clay Strays performing a live version was posted on TikTok on September 3, 2023. The song soundtracked over 60,000 clips on TikTok by the end of 2023 and 71,000 TikTok videos in January 2024. Its popularity has also led to many singers posting their own covers of the song on the platform. In June 2024, it had amassed over 100 million streams on Spotify.
Described as a "bluesy", the song depicts an unlikely romantic relationship between an upper-class woman and working-class man.

She comes from silver spoon, golden rule
Private school, never miss Sunday church
And I come from blue-collar, low-dollar
Out here where concrete meets old red dirt
And I don't know what happened
But it sure don't add up on paper
But when I close my eyes late at night
You can bet I thank my maker
She keeps on lovin' me, loves me the way I am
She's not just along for the ride, she's my biggest fan
Lord, it's a little piece of Heaven when we lay down at night
She keeps on lovin' me and I keep on wondering why
She's got a wicked smile, angel eyes
Every guy wantin' to hold her close
She's as pretty as sin
Like the sun sinkin' down on the California coast
She keeps on lovin' me, loves me the way I am
She's not just along for the ride, she's my biggest fan
Lord, it's a little piece of Heaven when we lay down at night
She keeps on lovin' me and I keep on wondering why
I don't know what happened
But it sure don't add up on paper
And as long as she lets me
I'll take her wherever she wants me to take her, oh
She keeps on lovin' me, loves me the way I am
She's not just along for the ride, she's my biggest fan
And it's a little piece of Heaven when we lay down at night
She keeps on lovin' me and I keep on wondering why
She keeps on lovin' me and I keep on wondering why
Private school, never miss Sunday church
And I come from blue-collar, low-dollar
Out here where concrete meets old red dirt
And I don't know what happened
But it sure don't add up on paper
But when I close my eyes late at night
You can bet I thank my maker
She keeps on lovin' me, loves me the way I am
She's not just along for the ride, she's my biggest fan
Lord, it's a little piece of Heaven when we lay down at night
She keeps on lovin' me and I keep on wondering why
She's got a wicked smile, angel eyes
Every guy wantin' to hold her close
She's as pretty as sin
Like the sun sinkin' down on the California coast
She keeps on lovin' me, loves me the way I am
She's not just along for the ride, she's my biggest fan

She keeps on lovin' me and I keep on wondering why
