Country music star Thomas Rhett‘s “It Goes Like This” was released in May 2013 as the third single from his debut album also titled, It Goes Like This. The song was written by his father Rhett Akins along with Ben Hayslip and Jimmy Robbins. The tune eventually hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart.
The corresponding music video was directed by TK McKamy and sadly doesn’t star his adorable wife Lauren Akins.

“It Goes Like This” Lyrics
Hey girl, you make me wanna write a song
Sit you down, I’ll sing it to you all night long
I’ve had a melody in my head since she walked in here and knocked me dead
Yeah girl, you make me wanna write a song
And it goes like ooh, what I wouldn’t do
To write my name on your heart, get you wrapped in my arms baby all around you
And it goes like hey, girl I’m blown away
Yeah it starts with a smile and it ends with an all night long slow kiss
Yeah it goes like this
Hey girl, you make me wanna drive you home
Get you outta here and get you all alone
I don’t know what it is about you, baby
But I’m all messed up and it might sound crazy
But you make me wanna write a song
And it goes like ooh, what I wouldn’t do
To write my name on your heart, get you wrapped in my arms baby all around you
And it goes like hey, girl I’m blown away
Yeah it starts with a smile and it ends with an all night long slow kiss
Yeah it goes like this
Lookin’ at you lookin’ at me that wait
Makes me wanna grab my old guitar and play
Something like ooh, what I wouldn’t do
To write my name on my heart, get you wrapped in my arms baby all around you
And it goes like hey, girl I’m blown away
Yeah it starts with a smile and it ends with an all night long slow kiss
Yeah it goes like this
And it goes like ooh, and it goes like hey
And it ends with a kiss
Yeah it goes like this
