Verse 1: She packed her bags before I could say a word. She's made her choice like I knew she would. Said "Boy, I won't change my mind. Try all ya want but come tomorrow I'll be gone". Her last words were "good luck movin on". Well,

 

Chorus: Honey, I don't wanna hurt your pride. But since you been gone my life's now mine. No more havin to hod my tongue, no more askin to go have fun. I can do what I feel, say what I think. Think I'll go out and have a celebration drink. I feel no pain, no sorrow, just joy. And just so ya know, Best I ever did was..let 'er go.

 

Verse 2: Well now, I'm a new man since she left. Didn't take long and I broken yet. I gave time to her I'll never get back. So first I did was help her pack. I said, "bout time I made things right. And when you're gone don't bother to write cause.."

 

Chorus: Honey, I don't wanna hurt your pride. But since you been gone my life's now mine. No more havin to hod my tongue, no more askin to go have fun. I can do what I feel, say what I think. Think I'll go out and have a celebration drink. I feel no pain, no sorrow, just joy. And just so ya know, Best I ever did was..let 'er go.

 

Verse 3: I'm sorry but you played me too many times. Yes I wanted love but not your kind. I could get use to bein this free. Cause keepin you around woulda been the death of me.

 

Chorus: Honey, I don't wanna hurt your pride. But since you been gone my life's now mine. No more havin to hod my tongue, no more askin to go have fun. I can do what I feel, say what I think. Think I'll go out and have a celebration drink. I feel no pain, no sorrow, just joy. And just so ya know, Best I ever did was..let 'er go.

This song was inspired by all the girls that played with guys hearts and made them feel like they were truly in love but then dropped them as soon as they were no longer useful.
