Yeah, we could ride around
Let everybody see
That me in love with you
Was just another thing
Nobody really talked about it
Nobody really even cared
When things are going good
It's quiet as a prayer

But goodbye gets around in this two light town
All them boys are buying rounds
'Cause they know you ain't with me
And hell yeah it hurts
'Cause I ain't said a word
But it's like everybody's heard 'bout us
And it ain't been a week
But I guess that's a thing
About these stomping grounds
When a girl like you goes
Goodbye gets around

When that rumor mill gets to rolling
Girl you know it, don't stop
It'll run just like a river
Across an old flint rock
And before you even know it
It's like your name's up in the news
And that county line over knows all about me and you

Goodbye gets around in this two light town
All them boys are buying rounds
'Cause they know you ain't with me
And hell yeah it hurts
'Cause I ain't said a word
But it's like everybody's heard 'bout us
And it ain't been a week
But I guess that's a thing
About these stomping grounds
When a girl like you goes
Goodbye gets around
Goodbye gets around

Before I even felt my world shake
It's like everybody heard my heart break

Goodbye gets around in this two light town
All them boys are buying rounds
'Cause they know you ain't with me
And hell yeah it hurts
'Cause I ain't said a word
But it's like everybody's heard 'bout us
And it ain't been a week
But I guess that's a thing
About these stomping grounds
When a girl like you goes
Goodbye gets around, oh
Goodbye gets around, hmm
