Garth Brooks new single "That's What Cowboys Do" has a third verse, but you'll need to work to hear it. Performances of the song's unreleased lyric aren't clandestine, but they're hardly plentiful.

Previously, Brooks had said that he wrote the "retro, George Strait-feeling" country song for country trio Midland, but he liked it too much to give away. Mitch Rossell and John Martin are Brooks' co-writers on the song, and lyrically, yes, it does tell parts of his story.

"Just a fact that we all pass through," Brooks shares when pressed to describe how. "I didn’t write ‘Alabama Clay,’ but I’ve lived that song. That’s the entertainer or the artist’s job. You gotta make that song you."

"She told me she was lonely and it would be alright / If happy-ever-after only meant one night," he sings to start the song "That's What Cowboys Do."

"So we saddled up in satin and rode off for the mornin' sun / Oh, but somewhere 'tween the neon and the mornin' skies / I saw that I was fallin' for those deep blue eyes / And I couldn't help but wonder, could this woman be the one?"

The recorded version — and thus, the version you'll hear on the radio — ends with the leaving, but prior to his Nashville tour stop, Brooks said that he'd just revealed a special live version with a third verse that "kind of explains and takes it to the next level. Or the last level.”
