| [00:09.755] |
We met up at my place 'cause my folks were out of town |
| [00:16.072] |
It was our last night together, we were gonna make it count |
| [00:22.738] |
We were headed off to Auburn, Texas Tech, and Kansas State |
| [00:29.434] |
Like a band of brothers breakin' up with one more show to play |
| [00:37.889] |
So we drink a case of Shiner, and all my daddy's Maker's Mark |
| [00:44.218] |
Pulled them speakers on the back porch, sat around and smoked cigars |
| [00:51.515] |
We sang along and laughed 'til dawn and watched that red sunrise |
| [00:59.550] |
That was a damn good goodbye |
| [01:15.217] |
I was hurtin' that next mornin', but I had one thing left to do |
| [01:21.660] |
'Cause the only girl I'd ever loved was bound for Baton Rouge |
| [01:28.697] |
We said we'd make it work, but we both knew that was a lie |
| [01:35.633] |
High school love ain't strong enough for a seven hour drive |
| [01:43.743] |
So we parked out by the football field, where we knew we'd be alone |
| [01:50.812] |
Leaned them bucket seats way back, and made love all night long |
| [01:57.476] |
Jumped the fence, sat in the stands and watched that red sunrise |
| [02:05.256] |
That was a damn good goodbye |
| [02:28.328] |
They ain't ever easy, sometimes they go bad |
| [02:34.266] |
Oh but sometimes they turn into the best times you ever had |
| [02:41.671] |
Nothing makes a memory that you'll take with you all your life |
| [02:49.562] |
Like a damn good goodbye |
