The Goal

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It was pack the trunk It was make the drive It was leave that little town behind Damn if I didn't leave it in the dust It was play the game It was play the show It was get a song on the radio I did it all, but damn, still ain't enough [Pre-Chorus] But what do you know? My daddy was right Said, "When it comes to what you want in this life It's okay to have a good long list Long as the top looks a little like this" [Chorus] Put family first but still put the work in Live them words in the Sunday sermon See a half-full glass of bourbon And make time to go back home Do what you love, love what you're doin' If you say "I do," hell, don't undo it Half good friend, even better human Written on that headstone Good Lord knows I ain't there yet But damn if that ain't the goal (Damn if that ain't the goal) [Verse 2] It took wakin' up in a quarter-life crisis To figure out what the point of life is It ain't puttin' more notches on the belt I'm still chasin' down some new horizons Nothin' wrong with left foot drivin' But the best things in life don't shine up on a shelf So if I do nothin' else [Chorus] I put family first but still put the work in Live them words in the Sunday sermon See a half-full glass of bourbon And make time to go back home Do what you love, love what you're doin' If you say "I do," hell, don't undo it Half good friend, even better human Written on that headstone Good Lord knows I ain't there yet But damn if that ain't the goal Damn if that ain't the goal [Bridge] I'm gettin' better at gettin' older If I could talk to twenty-three me, yeah, I would've told her [Chorus] Put family first but still put the work in Live them words in the Sunday sermon See a half-full glass of bourbon And make time to go back home Do what you love, love what you're doin' If you say "I do," hell, don't undo it Half good friend, even better human Written on that headstone Good Lord knows I ain't there yet But damn if that ain't the goal
