The Granger Smith When the Good Guys Win song and album were released in 2017. Country music artist Granger Smith announced the album via social media. His record titled When the Good Guys Win, is his 9th studio album and is Smith’s follow-up to his 2016 album, Remington. The country singer’s previous album included “Backroad Song,” which is certified RIAA GOLD, and “If the Boot Fits,” which reached No. 5.
“With most of 2016 and 2017 spent on tour, there wasn’t much time for working on an album,” says Smith. “In fact, we only spent three days in a real studio for an entire year’s worth of work. Instead, I set up a mobile studio in the back of my bus for all the writing, editing and even recording. I sang all of the lead vocals at home in Texas, and did a lot of file sharing back and forth with my co-producers. With the album evolving this way on the road, country fairs, parking lots, green rooms and hotel lobbies, it truly reflects the source of the inspiration: the fans. Without knowing it, my fans were involved in every step of this project and I believe they will hear that through the music. Looking back, I don’t think there could have been a better way to do it.”

Granger Smith When the Good Guys Win Lyrics
He’s a greasy wrench turning on a big block Chevrolet
First in last out every day
He’s a make a dollar, give a dollar, if you need me holler
Kinda good old boy
There’s a single white trailer, couple acres on the edge of town
Front porch, sun going down
And that pretty thing swinging on the swing like a dream
Is wearing his ring
[Chorus]
Don’t you love it when the good guys win
Don’t you love it when a ship comes in
Yeah man, every now and then
What goes around, comes around again
Don’t you love a little long shot prayer
Underdog on a hell of a tear
He wants to kiss and she leans in
Don’t you love it when the good guys win
[Verse 2]
She’s a million dollar smile in a ten dollar kind of town
The kind that turns hard luck around
She’s with him ’til the end, good or bad, thick or thin
Yeah, he’s on a roll now
[Chorus]
Don’t you love it when the good guys win
Don’t you love it when a ship comes in
Yeah man, every now and then
What goes around, comes around again
Don’t you love a little long shot prayer
Underdog on a hell of a tear
He wants to kiss and she leans in
Don’t you love it when the good guys win
Yeah, when the good guys win
[Bridge]
He’s a greasy wrench turning on a big block Chevrolet
First in last out every day
He’s a make a dollar, give a dollar, if you need me holler
Kinda good old boy
[Chorus]
Don’t you love it when the good guys win
Don’t you love it when a ship comes in
Yeah man, every now and then
What goes around, comes around again
Don’t you love a little long shot prayer
Underdog on a hell of a tear
He wants to kiss and she leans in
Don’t you love it when the good guys win

Happens Like That Lyrics
You order a drink, it goes down smooth
Before you can blink, it turns into two
It was just gonna be another night with the boys
Shooting some pool, pickin’ a stool and making some noise
Then she walks in and I never dance
Turns into tippin’ the band, and taking her hand…ah man
It happens like that
Outta the blue sky, lost in her blue eyes
Yeah, when it happens like that
Nothing to lose turns right into you
Doing all you can do just to keep her around
Till the moon goes down and you’re back at your house
One thing leads to another, you’re loving each other
One look and you never look back
It happens like that
It happens like that
I guess that’s what you get
It’s true what they say
As soon as you stop looking, it’s right in front of your face
Cause there you were and there I was and here we are, I tell you what
True love, it happens like that
Outta the blue sky, lost in her blue eyes
Yeah, when it happens like that
Nothing to lose turns right into you
Doing all you can do just to keep her around
Till the moon goes down and you’re back at your house
One thing leads to another, you’re loving each other
One look and you never look back
It happens like that, yeah
Ever wonder how
Just one drink
Turns into one knee down with a diamond ring
It happens like that
Outta the blue sky, lost in her blue eyes
Yeah, when it happens like that
Nothing to lose turns right into you
Doing all you can do just to keep her around
Till the moon goes down and you’re back at your house
One thing leads to another, you’re loving each other
One look and you never look back
It happens like that
You order a drink, it goes down smooth
Before you can blink, it turns into two
