Her latest single, “Thick Thighs” (released in May 2019), was written about being confident in the skin you are in, without taking yourself too seriously. In an interview Priscilla said, “I've been told far too many times how I need to look as a female trying to make it in country music, and this is my response.”
Priscilla has played sold-out shows all across the Southeast, including Deep South the Bar in her hometown of Raleigh, NC. She has opened for acts such as the Dixie Chicks, Lady A, Brad Paisley, and Luke Bryan.
Bad Part of Good
Priscilla Block Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That seem to justify just one night
Good wine, good for another try
It's all good 'til it's gone
I know I need to move on
Mm, yeah
There you are messing me up and I give inOne good night I wanna pretend
That it's a spark in your eye or the moon light reeling me in
Like I knew it would
I know that I can't say no
I need to let you and the good times go
It's gonna hurt like hell in the morning as it should
That's the bad part of good
Good bye, good morning
I warned myself this was comin'
Heartache, good pain, good 'til you go away
It's all good 'til it's gone
Why can't I seem to move on
There you are messing me up and I give in
One good night I wanna pretend
That it's a spark in your eye or the moon light reeling me in
Like I knew it would
I know that I can't say no
I need to let you and the good times go
It's gonna hurt like hell in the morning, as it should
That's the bad part of good
That's the bad part of good
Good lines (good lines), good wine (good wine)
Goodnight (good night), goodbye (goodbye)
There you are messing me up and I give in
One good night I wanna pretend
That it's the spark in your eye or the moon light reeling me in
Like I knew it would
I know that I can't say no
I need to let you and the good times go
It's gonna hurt like hell in the morning as it should
That's the bad part of good
That's the bad part of good
Oh
Good lines (good lines), good wine (good wine)
Goodnight (good night), goodbye (goodbye)
Priscilla Block's "Bad Part of Good" is a song about the difficulty of letting go of a relationship that is clearly not working out. The lyrics suggest that the singer knows that the relationship is not healthy and that she needs to move on, but she cannot seem to resist the other person's charm and the temporary pleasure that the relationship provides. The "good lines" and "good lies" that the other person tells her seem to justify the "one night" that they spend together, and the "good wine" they share makes her think that things might work out between them. However, the singer is aware that these good times will not last and that she will eventually have to confront the pain of the breakup, which is the "bad part of good."
The chorus of the song emphasizes the internal struggle that the singer is experiencing. She knows she should walk away from the relationship, but she cannot say no to the other person. She acknowledges that it will hurt to let go of the good times, but it is a necessary step to move on and find happiness. The repetition of "goodbyes," "good mornings," and "good nights" throughout the song reflects the cyclical nature of the relationship, with the singer moving from pleasure to pain and back again, without finding a way out.
Overall, "Bad Part of Good" is a bittersweet reflection on the complexities of human relationships and the need to make difficult choices for one's own well-being.

Add Wyoming and Montana to your tour dates. I been playing it for everybody here in Mile City, you would be perfect for the Bucking Horse sale that's so world renowned here. I found you on the jukebox last night, I overheard people "Wow, who is that"? So I put $10 in and played it over and over till they were all singing alone. Listened to your story, glad you didn't give up.
