  • I had a couple beers with one of my friends
    Told him just how our story ends
    Did all I could to try to make it work
    But you drug my heart through the Alabama dirt

    I've been out the house, climbing them walls
    Checking that calendar, exin' days off
    Hit another bar, call another friend
    Throw a few down, tell the story again

    Hey, hey, what can I say?
    I can just lie and say it's all okay
    Oh-ho, what can I do?
    Been going through Hell getting over you
    But it don't hurt, it don't hurt like it used to
    No it don't hurt, it don't hurt like it used to

    I'm finally getting out back into the world
    Life is good, I met me a girl
    She got a beautiful heart, eyes are blue
    I don't hardly ever think about you

    Hey, hey, what can I say?
    I can just lie and say it's all okay
    Oh-ho, what can I do?
    Been going through Hell getting over you
    But it don't hurt, it don't hurt like it used to
    No it don't hurt, it don't hurt like it used to

    Sometimes I find peace of mind in a bottle of wine
    Sometimes I break down and cry

    Hey, hey, what can I say?
    I can just lie and say it's all okay
    Oh-ho, what can I do?
    Been goin' through Hell getting over you

    Hey, hey, what can I say?
    I can just lie and say it's all okay
    Oh-ho, what can I do?
    Been goin' through Hell getting over you
    But it don't hurt, it don't hurt like it used to
    No it don't hurt, it don't hurt like it used to
    No it don't hurt, it don't hurt like it used to

    It don't hurt, it don't hurt like it used to Writer/s: Billy Currington, Blake Anthony Carter, Cary Ryan Barlowe
