Billy Currington<\/a>‘s sophomore 2005 album, Doin’ Somethin’ Right<\/em>, generated two No. 1 country hits. The first was the album’s lead single, “Must Be Doin’ Somethin’ Right.” A second single, “Why, Why, Why,” peaked at No. 13, while the third single took the country singer back to No. 1. “Good Directions” hit No. 1 on the Billboard<\/em> Hot Country Songs chart, spending three weeks there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Good Directions” was written by Luke Bryan<\/a> and Rachel Thibodeau. This was before Bryan’s debut album, in which he recorded his own version of the track. The two developed a songwriting partnership in Nashville and penned the track for their label. Bryan is from Georgia, which is why the song is set in the southern state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
