[Brad Paisley - The Best Thing That I Had Goin' lyrics]
Finally got that promotion I
Worked hard to get
One that came with a company car
When they gave me the keys they
Said son you can bet
Keep it up and you'll really go far
But what good is all that knowing
The best thing that I had going is gone
My good friends come around to
Hang out now and then
And they joke, man you've sure got it hard
With this house on the hill
And a white picket fence
And the grass sure is green in the yard
Well I squandered my time
Trying to buy everything
Gave her all that I thought she deserved
Now I know all the things
That she wanted were free
And I should have been home holding her
Worked hard to get
One that came with a company car
When they gave me the keys they
Said son you can bet
Keep it up and you'll really go far
But what good is all that knowing
The best thing that I had going is gone
My good friends come around to
Hang out now and then
And they joke, man you've sure got it hard
With this house on the hill
And a white picket fence
And the grass sure is green in the yard
Well I squandered my time
Trying to buy everything
Gave her all that I thought she deserved
Now I know all the things
That she wanted were free
And I should have been home holding her
