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
