Get to Gettin’ Gone Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Good lord, we had a good long run
Runnin' down dead end streets
Two hearts like a loaded gun
Shootin' down stars and dive bar drinks
You said you love the wind, yeah, love to roll with it
It ain't a picket fence you're after
We used to be on the same damn page
Now it's like we're on two different chapters

[Chorus]
So I'll get to gettin' gone
Get on my no-look-back, yeah
And like an old song
Fadin' off in the radio static
We had it good, ain't no good time for goodbye
Don't you think it's about time?
That this life we been livin', lips you been kissin'
Tires that I'm sittin' on
Gеt to gettin' gone

[Verse 2]
Why waste anothеr day, girl?
'Cause we ain't gettin' no younger
And that settle-down river's strong
It'll pull your wild dreams under
Your mama took a deep breath, say it's 'bout time you tell
That rollin' stone you're rollin' with
[Chorus]
To get to gettin' gone
Get on my no-look-back, yeah
And like an old song
Fadin' off in the radio static
We had it good, ain't no good time for goodbye
Don't you think it's about time?
That this life we been livin', lips you been kissin'
Tires that I'm sittin' on
Get to gettin' gone

[Bridge]
I'm an anywhere-but-here-bound highway
You're a 'round-here long gravel driveway
But, oh, you know if I had it my way
The hometown girl in your heart
Would get to gettin' gone

[Chorus]
Get to gettin' gone
Get on my no look back, yeah
And like an old song
Fadin' off in the radio static
We had it good, ain't no good time for goodbye
Don't you think it's about time?
That this life we been livin', lips you been kissin'
Tires that I'm sittin' on
Get to gettin' gone
[Outro]
(Get to gettin' gone)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
