  • Drivin' down a goodbye road
    Scannin' through the radio
    'Cause misery loves company
    And here I am alone
    Dying for some steel guitar
    And to hear somebody fallin' apart
    To share my pain but it sounds the same
    On every station in this car

    Nobody's singin' 'bout love gone wrong
    Or being as lonely as the night is long
    I like a party in a truck
    Every bit as much as the next guy
    But come on (come on) she's gone
    And sometimes you need a heartbreak song

    Some words to help me fight back tears
    Would sure be music to my ears
    All this dancin' around with the tailgate down
    It ain't what I need to hear

    Nobody's singin' 'bout love gone wrong
    Or being as lonely as the night is long
    I like a party in a truck
    Every bit as much as the next guy
    But come on (come on) she's gone (she's gone)
    And sometimes you need a heartbreak song

    Yeah, she looks so good in the bonfire light
    Ball cap and blue jeans on hot summer nights
    These feel good songs don't feel right
    Since she's gone

    Nobody's singin' 'bout love gone wrong
    Or being as lonely as the night is long
    I like a party in a truck
    Every bit as much as the next guy
    But come on (come on) baby's gone (she's gone)
    And sometimes you need a heartbreak song
