Song lyrics
(Sarah Buxton - Deanna Bryant - Dave Berg)

Well, she was precious like a flower
She grew wild, wild, but innocent
A perfect prayer in a desperate hour
She was everything beautiful and different,
Stupid boy
You can't fence that in
Stupid boy
It's like holdin' back the wind.

Chorus:
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice
And that's what happens when the only voice she hears
Is telling her she can't, stupid boy,
Stupid boy.

So, what made you think you could take a life
And just push it, push it around
I guess to build yourself up so high
You had to take her, and break her, down.

Chorus:
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice
And that's what happens when the only voice she hears
Is telling her she can't, you stupid boy

Oh, You always had to be right
And now you lost the only thing
That ever made you feel alive.

--- Instrumental ---

Chorus:
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands,yeah
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans,yes you did,
She never even knew she had a choice
And that's what happens when the only voice she hears
Is telling her she can't,you stupid boy

Oh, I'm the same old, same old stupid boy
It took a while for her to figure out she could run
But when she did, she was, long gone, long gone...

Oh, she was gone,
She was long gone,
Oh, yeah she is

--- Instrumental ---

Nobody's ever gonna love me like she loved me
She loved me, she loved me
God please, just let her know
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I'm sorry, I'm sorry baby,
Yeah, I'm down on my knees
She's never coming back to me

--- Instrumental to fade ---

I love this song and the words to it just remind me of my friend Rhonda who I died from cancer last month. She was young and beautiful and a wonderful pearson who spent 20 years devoted to and loving a man who made her feel worthless most of time. He even made her feel week in the beginning of her inless saying she pretended to be sicker than she was and always made her feel guilty for not feeling well and being able to work . Enen before her sickness he never appriciated her for all the things she did for him personally and for there bussiness . Now she is gone and I hope he realises what a stupid boy he was and he will never have another who loved him like she did. Now that's a stupid boy! *thumbs up to Keith Urban* this one really hit home and my heart ....

Well Keith Urban has always been a favorite of mine. However, this is perhaps my favorite song by him. It is so true! Most songs out there by male country singers are about the girl breaking his heart. Finally a male country singer who sees it from the point of view of us girls! He examines heartbreak on our end of the stick! I've known a few stupid boys and well lets face it I've been a stupid girl!

I can't help but think that Kieth is singing about his wife Nicole Kidman and her former Marriage to Tom Cruise. From what I heard, Tom treated Nicole Like dirt. And now he's doing it to Katie. I don't know if I'm right but it seems like it's possible.

wow! this song absolutely kills me. the only reason i even decided to listen to it was because of the name. there's been an ongoing joke between me and my friends for awhile now and my nickname has been stupid girl...anyway, this song really hits home. my best friend told me i needed to listen to hit because it was the perfect song for a stupid girl who put herself in a mess with a stupid boy that she couldn't get out of. and again...WOW!

It's kind of hard to believe that no one is posting on this song. The guys probably don't want to admit that this song COULD be about them. But girls?? Where are you? If you've ever had your heart broken by a man who you loved like you never loved another, and you had both spokeN of plans and dreams for the future, only to have your dreams come tumbling down because he betrayed you, this is the song to sing out LOUD! MAKES FOR GOOD THERAPY!!!!

I love to drive around while listening to heart wrenching Keith Urban songs. Stupid Boy has helped me towards healing in a death of a relationship that I thought was solid, honest, and real. I did have dreams of a future with someone I truly loved. Next month will mark two years of mourning. "Stupid Boy" has helped me tremendously. KU other songs that helped me were, "You're Not My God", "You're Not Alone Tonight, and "You'll Think of Me". More on "You're Not MY God" when you read that discussion.

this is an amazing song... i've been the girl before and its so true. you dont realize what a stupid boy has done to you until you finally see the light and get away. it still hurts knowing what could have been amazing and turned into something horrible and abusive, but the only thing there is to do is to move on and never come back...

Many so-called "men" have been "Stupid Boys", but maybe,though this tune
hits close to home,they won't be MAN enough to admit it. As for me, my
attempts at righteousness are as Paul said,liken to "filthy rags" so, I find it
rather easy to admit,and,or,confess my weakness/faults here.

PS - BEING brutely HONEST THOUGH, I HAVE COME VERY CLOSE, IN AN

ODD WAY.

BY CONSTANTLY GIVING "UNCONDITIONAL LOVE" AND, NEVER OFFERING

"TOUGH LOVE", I UNCONSCIOUSLY suffocated A WOMANFRIEND >

VERY SOLID(SUBSTANTIAL) KEITH. THE TRUTH WILL SET (ME)YOU (AND,

HER) FREE.

I'D LIKE TO SAY I WAS REALLY NEVER "THERE" ,UNFORTUNATELY HOWEVER,

BEING brutely HONEST, POSSIBLY, JUST ONCE(I THANK GOD). SEE, EVEN

THOUGH I GAVE AN "UNCONDITIONAL LOVE", WHAT I FAILED TO DO WAS

TO PROVIDE A KIND OF DISCIPLINED, BOUNDARY- LADEN "TOUGH LOVE".



THAT'S BOTH A TOUGH LESSON TO LEARN AND "HARD PILL TO SWALLOW.

GOOD GOIN' KEITH - THE TRUTH WILL SET (ME)YOU (AND,HER,) FREE.

SOLID.

I'D LIKE TO SAY I WAS NEVER "THERE", BUT, TO BE BRUTALLY HONEST,

POSSIBLY,MAYBE, JUST ONCE(I THANK GOD).

IN AN ODD WAY I MISCALCULATED BY

CONTINUALLY GIVING "UNCONDITIONAL LOVE"

WHEN WHAT THE SITUATION CALLED FOR WAS "TOUGH LOVE".

HARD TO BELIEVE BUT,SOMETIMES,LOVE JUST AIN'T ENOUGH"
