The Best Thing That I Had Goin' — Brad Paisley

Written by Jerry Salley & Chris Stapleton

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

Chorus

But what good is all that knowin' The best thing that I had goin' 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

Chorus

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 holdin' her

Chorus
