Why Can't You is the third studio album by the American country music singer Larry Stewart and his final album for Columbia Records. It was released in 1996. Singles released from the album were "Why Can't You" and "Always a Woman", which respectively reached #46 and #70 on the Billboard country singles charts.
Thom Owens gave the album three stars out of five in Allmusic, where he wrote that it "suffers from an uneven selection of material and production that plays it too close to the vest".[1]
