(Verse 1)
Yeah, look, another Friday night in this fuckin town
Sun dips, orange dust as the day winds down
Used to be you and me, sittin’ on the tailgate
Talkin’ ‘bout runnin’ this whole county, man, it sure feels late now.
We were young, thought we were fast, burnin’ every single road
Now I’m just drivin’ past the spots where our story got old.
(Chorus)
So forget you, then. Forget that little promise that you made.
Forget the way you looked at me forget the games you played.
Gonna roll the windows down, let the gravel fly, yeah, that’s the sound.
A little "Forget You, Then" playin’ loud when you ain't around.
Got no time for the rearview, time to clear the track
Forget you, then, 'cause baby, I ain’t never lookin’ back.
(Verse 2)
Saw you at the county fair with that new guy last week
Pretendin' I don't see ya, yeah, the move was slick
But I ain't bitter, nah, just got a story to tell
Got my boots on, dirt road, yeah, I'm doing well.
This ain’t a sad song, nah, it's a "move along" anthem
Turn the volume up high, give the memory a ransom.
From the city lights to the silo stars, I got my own lane
Forget the hurt, forget the past, forget the whole damn pain.
(Chorus)
So forget you, then. Forget that little promise that you made.
Forget the way you looked at me underneath the willow shade.
Gonna roll the windows down, let the gravel fly, yeah, that’s the sound.
A little "Forget You, Then" playin’ loud when you ain't around.
Got no time for the rearview, time to clear the track
Forget you, then, 'cause baby, I ain’t never lookin’ back.
(Bridge)
Sometimes I wonder if you hear this beat on the AM
A little taste of what you lost, hope it makes you say "damn".
But it don't matter 'cause I’m gone, ghostin' out of sight
Found my peace in the dust, yeah, the future's bright.
This ain't no goodbye, it's a "see ya never again"
Got my guitar, got my truck, got my real good friends.
(Outro)
Yeah. Forget you, then.
Just forget you, then.
Rollin' out, windows down...
Yeah, forget you, then
