“Pretty Heart” is the ninth track on Parker’s album; “Gold Chain Cowboy.” This song is his way of asking his ex-girlfriend what made him decide to break her heart and not do anything as she drove off leaving him standing there like a “fence post.”
[Verse 1]
I didn't think I was a bad guy
I knew that you were good
You were golden on the inside
And you loved me the best you could
I'm the one who dropped the ball
Got you high and let you fall
Let the best thing I ever had slip away
[Chorus]
What does that say about me?
I could do you like I did
That I could break an angel's wings
What does that say about me?
That I stood there like a fencepost
As you drove off in your car
What does that say about me
Now that I've broke your pretty heart?
Your pretty heart
[Verse 2]
I've been drinkin' like a drunkard
In these Austin neon lights
Burning smokes and wondering
If there's anything I've done right
Well, I wish that I could go back
Hang on to what I had
Guess that's all, babe
Nothin' but a dream
[Chorus]
What does that say about me?
I could do you like I did
That I could break an angel's wings
What does that say about me?
That I stood there like a fencepost
As you drove off in your car
What does that say about me
Now that I've broke your pretty heart?
Your pretty heart
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
What does that say about me?
I could do you like I did
That I could break an angel's wings
What does that say about me?
That I stood there like a fencepost
As you drove off in your car
What does that say about me
Now that I've broke your pretty heart?
Your pretty heart
Your pretty heart
Your pretty heart

That song literally changed my life. Number one, gold, platinum—all good things. I’d had the idea for that song since 2014, and it was one of my first co-writes ever in Nashville. I was writing with Randy Montana, who’s a good buddy of mine now, and didn’t really have any ideas that I was stoked on....
