Cry Pretty is the sixth studio album by American country music singer and songwriter Carrie Underwood. The album was released on September 14, 2018, as Underwood's first album with her new record label, Capitol Records Nashville after signing a global deal with Universal Music Group at the start of 2017. The album marked the first co-producing effort by Underwood, who partnered with David Garcia for the record.
The album was met with mostly positive reviews from music critics, and debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, making Underwood the first woman to hit the top of the Billboard 200 chart with four country albums. It also achieved the biggest sales week for a country album in more than three years, as well as the biggest sales week for a female artist in 2018. It also debuted at number one in Canada, number four in Australia and charted in several other markets.
The album has so far been supported by four singles: "Cry Pretty", "Love Wins", "Southbound", and "Drinking Alone". To further promote it, Underwood embarked on The Cry Pretty Tour 360, which started on May 1 and ended on October 31, 2019.
You think I'm crying over you
You think I'm dying too
You think I'm thinking way too much
And sadly out of touch
With all the world and all my friends, well, think what you want and think again, think again
[Chorus]
'Cause what you don't know is I'm throwin' a party
And everybody tonight is feelin' alright, with some Jack in their Coke
The records are spinnin' and the speakers are smokin'
There ain't no last call, I'm havin' a ball with Hank Haggard and Jones
No, I ain't alone
I feel right at home with my ghosts on the stereo
[Verse 2]
There ain't no lights on, the curtains drawn
Just one car in the drive
And the neighbors might think it's a haunted house, yeah
But I've never felt so alive
[Chorus]
'Cause what they don't know is I'm throwin' a party
And everybody tonight is feelin' alright, with some Jack in their Coke
The records are spinnin' and the speakers are smokin'
There ain't no last call, I'm havin' a ball with Hank Haggard and Jones
No, I ain't alone
I feel right at home with my ghosts on the stereo
With my ghosts on the stereo
[Bridge]
One song at a time, I get their advice
And the pain melts away like whiskey on ice
[Chorus]
Baby, you don't know that I'm throwin' a party
And everybody tonight is feelin' alright, with some Jack in their Coke
Yeah, the records are spinnin' and the speakers are smokin'
There ain't no last call, I'm havin' a ball with Hank Haggard and Jones
No, I ain't alone
I feel right at home with my ghosts on the stereo
Oh, yeah, with my ghosts on the stereo
Yeah
Oh, yeah, I've got my ghosts on the stereo
