Album Notes

Girls seem to be under an enormous amount of pressure from the world to be smart, graceful, strong and independent, as well as to look good along with being thoughtful and kind. Some boys might mistake a girl’s kindness for weakness, and thus will attempt to use flattery in the process of trying to manipulate them into doing things they might not otherwise do. This song encourages girls to recognize when this type of manipulation is happening, and to “Just Say Goodbye."

(Lyrics)
A paralyzing stare and captivating lines
He knew exactly what to say
Like girl you know that you are always on my mind
I’ll never make it through a day (day without you)

But he was ready to just take it all from me
and I just wouldn’t go that far… so,

He said goodbye ya’ll
He said goodbye ya’ll
He left me standin’ like I wasn’t worth a try ya’ll

No need to cry ya’ll
He said goodbye ya’ll
and gave me freedom again!

Fatal attraction to an intoxicating smile
A poison that can bring you down
You’ll never know until he stays with you awhile
If you can make him stick around

But everything points to the fact that he won’t stay
and if you got nerve and don’t just give in that way, then…

He’ll say goodbye ya’ll
He’ll say goodbye ya’ll
He’ll leave ya standin’ like it wasn’t worth a try ya’ll

He’ll say goodbye ya’ll
He’ll try to make ya fall
and when you think you’re good he’ll take away your smile ya’ll

He’ll say goodbye ya’ll
He’ll say goodbye ya’ll
He’ll leave ya standin’ like it wasn’t worth a try ya’ll

No need to cry ya’ll
He’ll say goodbye ya’ll
You’ll have your freedom again!

(You don’t know it) today he want’s it all from you
(Never showing) tomorrow he won’t even know your name

So if you find someone who really makes you smile
and everything is on the line
You really want to try and stay with him awhile
but he’ll be leaving you behind

Before you end up feeling blinded by the pain
Here’s some advice on what to say

Just say goodbye ya’ll
Just say goodbye ya’ll
Just let him know that you’re no longer gonna’ try ya’ll

Just say goodbye ya’ll
and watch him take a fall
then let him know that you were tired of his lies ya’ll

Just say goodbye ya’ll
Go on and fly ya’ll
and maybe then he’ll know exactly what he’s lost ya’ll

Just say goodbye ya’ll
Girl let it go ya’ll
and take your freedom again!
