"It's Just That Way" is a song written by Vicky McGehee, Kylie Sackley and Keith Stegall, and recorded by American country music artist Alan Jackson. It was released on January 4, 2010, as the lead-off single to his sixteenth studio album Freight Train, which was released on March 30, 2010.
"It's Just That Way" is a country ballad, backed primarily with steel guitar and piano fills. The song's male narrator compares common occurrences in everyday life ("That ol' sun comes up every mornin'" / "And goes back down at the end of every day") to his assurance to always love his woman. He concludes by stating that he doesn't have any explanation for this, and that "it's just that way."
