Songfacts®:

• Morgan Wallen's Dangerous album is a huge 30-track record that speaks to multiple phases of his life. It is split into two halves: Side A is more about relationships and heartbreak. This song is the first track on Side B, which amps up his redneck side by celebrating his small-town southern roots.
• Morgan Wallen was born and raised in Sneedville, outside of Knoxville in eastern Tennessee. With a population of about 1,400, it fits the bill of a rural small town.
  
  Cause I'm from a small town, southern drawl crowd
  We're sippin' clear, drinkin' beer on a Friday night
  Every country girl got on her cutoffs
  Shakin' her hips, take a trip, buddy tell me I'm a liar
  
  Wallen is proud to speak with a "southern drawl" in a place where there is so little crime people don't lock their doors.
  
  The way I talk, I guess I got it from my pops
  Product of some kneelin' down
  In a town where the doors don't lock
  And there's a million other people like me
  
  Wallen is a son of a preacher - his father was a Baptist pastor.
• Wallen wrote the song with:
  
  His close friend and frequent collaborator, Hardy.
  
  Charlie Handsome, who contributed to seven Dangerous tracks, including "More Than My Hometown."
