Zach Bryan, 2023
Written by Zach Bryan
This is a down-home country banger with rock sensibilities. It's a declaration of being a loner, a maverick, a working man who didn't listen to the naysayers. "But I been scrapin' by my whole damn life / And granddaddy worked a double 'til the day he died / Said, Never let this world's earthly pride get you down." It's got a singalong groove, and Bryan is a fine lyricist, but to me the delivery lacks the fireball energy that the words inhabit. Maybe he's been working so hard, he's too tired to give the take the oomph it deserves.
