McComas later attended college, but soon dropped out to move to Nashville, Tennessee. McComas briefly signed to Mercury Records, before he landed a deal with Lyric Street in 2001, charting the singles "Night Disappear With You" and "I Could Never Love You Enough". In 2003, he landed his first Top 10, "99.9% Sure (I've Never Been Here Before)" and the follow up "You're in My Head", a #21 hit on the country charts. Another single for Lyric Street, "The Middle of Nowhere", fell short of the Top 40, and Lyric Street dropped him not long afterward. He later signed to Katapult Records, where he released Back Up Again, his second album.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got to you
We got somethin' that's steady and true
It's a good good lovin'
Backroads boy
Bright-eyed girl
With our own little piece of the world
Yeah, it is
Chorus
Gimme that sweet, sweet surrender
For as long as I can remember
It's been the real thing
We ain't pretenders
Yes, you're somethin'
Ooh baby, that good good lovin'
Rooster crows
Up with the sun
Come home runnin' when the day is done
For the good good lovin'
Front porch swing
Starry night
Doin' our thing and doin' it right
It's a good good lovin'
Yeah, it is
2nd Chorus
Gimme that sweet, sweet surrender
January through December
Baby, it's the real thing
We ain't pretenders
It's next to nothin'
Ooh baby, that good good lovin'
Time for bed
Steal another kiss
Ain't no feelin' better than this
It's a good good lovin'
Close my eyes
Start to pray
Ask the Lord for one more day
Of the good good lovin'
'Cause it is
3rd Chorus
That sweet, sweet surrender
January through December
Yeah, it's the real thing
We ain't pretenders
Yeah, extra somethin'
Oh, it's next to nothin'
Ooh baby, that good good lovin'
Yeah, good good lovin'
Yeah
Good good, good good lovin'
That's good, bro
The song "Good Good Lovin'" by Brian McComas is all about the sweet, steady love shared between two people in a small town. The lyrics paint a picture of a simple life, filled with early mornings, hard work, and evenings spent on the front porch swing. The chorus emphasizes that the love between these two people is the real deal- it's not just pretending or going through the motions. The singer asks for "one more day" of this good love, suggesting that he never wants this relationship to end.
The imagery in this song is particularly strong. The references to the rooster crowing and running home at the end of the day create a sense of small-town, country living. The front porch swing and starry night give a sense of peacefulness and contentment. The line "start to pray, ask the Lord for one more day" adds a spiritual element, as though the singer knows that this love is a gift that he wants to hold onto as long as possible.
Overall, "Good Good Lovin'" is a song about appreciating the simple things in life, and recognizing the value of true love. It's a reminder to slow down and appreciate the good things we have, rather than always chasing after something more.
