“As I’ve spent time in Nashville doing a lot of writing, I’ve also had the opportunity to hear a lot of great songs that have been written by other writers. The second I heard this song it caught my ear. ‘The Finger’ was a song I wish I’d written,” said Leatherwood. “What got me about this song is that I think everyone can relate to having a relationship go wrong and you wish it didn’t. All she left giving you is one of these [the finger]. You have to make a joke out of it! This song is me, and I hope that country music fans everywhere see where I’m coming from. Thanks to everyone who has been waiting for me to release music.”

“The winner of NBC’s The Voice steps into country music with a clever, twanging lament. “My ex moved on with her next…she got the ring and I got the finger.” The track is loud and rocking, but his singing is firmly in control. Worth your spins.” – Music Row

Lyrics “The Finger”

Word gets around and ’round here quick

I heard it in the Quik Stop line

Well, Billy told me she was tyin’ the knot

While he was ringin’ up my Busch Lite

I bought this case to last a couple days

But I might drink ‘em all tonight

‘Cause my brand-new ex moved on to the next

Guess I just got left behind

Yeah, he got her hand to hold on the long ride

I got a cloud of dust and the taillights

He’s got his best days comin’, mine ain’t comin’ back

Yeah, he got the gold mine, I got the shaft

He got a “Yes” with a big ol’ “I do”

I got them hand grenades and horseshoes

He got the honey and I got the stinger

She got the ring and I got the finger

I bet her uncle walks her down the aisle

I bet her brother does some bridesmaids flirtin’

But if they send me a save the date

I ain’t gonna be the only one hurtin’

Yeah, he got her hand to hold on the long ride

I got a cloud of dust and the taillights

He’s got his best days comin’, mine ain’t comin’ back

Yeah, he got the gold mine, I got the shaft

He got a “Yes” with a big ol’ “I do”

I got them hand grenades and horseshoes

He got the honey and I got the stinger

She got the ring and I got the finger

Yeah, I got the finger

He got her hand to hold on the long ride

I got a cloud of dust and the taillights

His best days are comin’, mine ain’t comin’ back

He got the gold mine, I got the shaft

He got a “Yes” with a big ol’ “I do”

I got them hand grenades and horseshoes

He got the honey and I got the stinger

She got a diamond on the one next to the one I got

When I got the finger

She got the ring and I got the finger
