Damn Good Day To Leave

(album: Ain't My Last Rodeo - 2023)

Girl I always pictured it'd be pouring down rain
With Old Hank singing some song about trains
And midnight taillights tearing down a highway
Or some other heartbroke cliché
But there's nothing but blue skies as far as I can see

You pick a damn good day to leave me
Sitting here cooler full of keystone
Nothing to do but fish all day long
Pocket full of three-day weekend money
Ain't a heartbreak cloud in the forecast, honey
I hate to see you go but if you ask me
You picked a damn good day to leave

Well how in the hell can I watch the big game
Without me having you here to complain
And how am I gonna do anything now
Without you here telling me how
Guess it could be worse, hell, it's seventy-five degrees

You pick a damn good day to leave me
Sitting here cooler full of keystone
Nothing to do but fish all day long
Pocket full of three-day weekend money
Ain't a heartbreak cloud in the forecast, honey
I hate to see you go but if you ask me
You picked a damn good day to leave

No doubt
Damn good day to leave

I guess I'll miss the Bachelorette
Well what a shame
But Channel 8's about to marathon John Wayne

You pick a damn good day to leave me
Sitting here cooler full of keystone
Nothing to do but fish all day long
Pocket full of three-day weekend money
Ain't a heartbreak cloud in the forecast, honey
I hate to see you go but if you ask me
You picked a damn good day to leave

(Ooh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, it was a mighty fine day to leave
(Ooh-oh-oh-oh)
