Herndon, Ty - Pretty Good Thing Lyrics






I went to pieces when she blew in
Like a strong man running through a hurricane wind
Before I had a clue how bad it would be
She tore my heart out and she showed it to me

Like a bone in a pit bull pen
She chewed me up and spit me out again
My knees still shake, my ears still ring
All in all it was a pretty good thing
All in all it was a pretty good thing

That was one ride that I'll never forget
I still ain't found all the pieces yet
She stripped my gears-she stole my shocks
And she left me sitting up here on these cinder blocks

Like a bone in a pit bull pen
She chewed me up and spit me out again
My knees still shake, my ears still ring
All in all it was a pretty good thing
All in all it was a pretty good thing

I know it's bound to sound a little crazy to you
But it sure was good for a minute or two

Like a bone in a pit bull pen
She chewed me up and spit me out again
My knees still shake, my ears still ring
All in all it was a pretty good thing
All in all it was a pretty good thing

    Ty thank you for speaking your truth and for making music once more. I was born listening to country music and have always loved your voice. “What Mattered Most” has always been an all time favorite of mine, but your version of this classic Carrie Underwood song is amazing. You are a personal hero of mine for coming out in country music. I know that must have been hard. Thank you for being you and for your music!

    Very pretty song leslie a davis

  46. D.... ....

    Loved this by Carrie, and love Ty, but wasn’t sure what to expect. Beautiful rendition, and very emotional performance. Music is such a gift, and I’m so thankful Ty is sharing his. Was tearing up a minute in. So much love to be felt and given in the world, and so many gravitate to fear, intolerance, and judgement. A forever fan Ty...and this song, your performance, and the video are just beautiful. ♥️

  47. Q.... C....

    Wow! That was amazing! Ty, thank you for sharing this beautiful, heartwarming, and affirming music video.  Very emotional, positive and encouraging.   www.queercafe.net

  48. J.... S....

    Also this fag ripped off Carrie under song.....and fucked it all to shit.

    J.... S....

    Underwood*

  49. J.... S....

    Oh.good....another douche trying to make money off the lgbtq agenda.....people have more important things to worry about besides someone s sexual orientation. These bullshit groups manufacture their own problems by shoving their b.s. Down people throats in literally every aspect of life. Annoyance turns to anger..anger turns to hate. Shut the fuck up live your life and leave people alone...

  50. D.... L....

    Always loved your music and that hasn't changed...except now I also love you. That is all.

  51. E.... C....

    Simply Beautiful A good 5minute cry

  52. M.... N....

    I can just about feel your heart when you sing. Your voice is so pleasing and you have so much compassion when you sing. That's a gift not given to everyone. You definitely deserve to have it and with all the hell, fire and brimstone you had to endure, along with your courage, proudly own it. No one can take it away and I'm elated for that and for you, in general. Always stand your proudest right up beside the others. They know how talented you are and I truly hope you know, as well. Sing on Ty!!! 🤗

    M.... N....

    Melvin Nixon what a beautiful sentiment I wholeheartedly agree

    M.... N....

    Eddie Cavlovich, thank you for your kindness! I was merely speaking from my heart! Ty is a force to be reckoned with. His voice is ever heartwarming and calming to the soul......

    M.... N....

    So perfectly said!👏 I do so hope Ty reads your words!

  53. N.... T....

    This was beautiful. I may not fully understand, or agree with your lifestyle, but I can most definitely respect you for living your life the way you believe is right.

  54. R.... ....

    Carrie Underwood did this same song

    R.... ....

    It's HER song. She wrote it with a couple of other songwriter's 😉

  55. T.... R....

    Great Job, Ty!!! You always do an amazing job!!! Can’t wait for whatever is next!!!

  56. M.... D....

  66. J.... O....

    I love the message about acceptance and love even though I don’t agree with his choices

    J.... O....

    You're a moron!!!!!! You just said you love the message of love and acceptance the. In the same breath you don't accept his choices??? Wtf?! You just contradicted yourself! First , his sexuality is not a choice and if you'd come out of your cave, you'd know that. Go to bed and pray for brains

    J.... O....

    Come on haters, she gave a positive comment. It was not hate. The attitude is nasty. She may not fully understand what it is like to be gay but the real disrespect came from the belligerence of the movement. That does not help your cause. The woman in no way disrespected...just gave opinion. Lighten up.

    J.... O....

    Jacob Olsen yes HIS choices

    J.... O....

    Nicole Terry oh fuck off you twat

    J.... O....

    Brenda Ball Brenda lick my balls. You're an idiot. Go read s fucking Bible

  67. A.... M....

    Update..I've pre ordered your album.. Played this song to my 13 Yr old ad on who is a massive carrie fan and like me he loves the track.. So I should get it sometime in Sept can't wait.

    Update 2..ive got the album and its brilliant.. Your voice just gets better....so you are now in the car with me and my son as we travel around the beautiful countryside of Wales.. We live 6 miles from the birth place of the ancestors of Conway Twitty.. Who's real name was really Welsh.. Harold Lloyd jenkins.
