Songfacts®:

  • The lyrics of this post-breakup song revolve around Morgan Wallen wondering if his ex thinks of him when she's with her new man. He questions whether thoughts of him come to mind when she's driving with her lover or tasting what he's drinking. Wallen hasn't let go of her yet and hopes she still has a candle burning for him.
  • Wallen's 2020 track "7 Summers" has a similar theme of wishing a former girlfriend still has feelings for him. On that song he sings:

    I wonder when you're drinkin'
    If you find yourself thinkin' about
    That boy from East Tennessee
  • Wallen recorded "Thinkin' Bout Me" for his One Thing at a Time album. He does a lot of thinking on the record, with other songs titled "Don't Think Jesus" and "Thought You Should Know."
  • John Byron, Ashley Gorley, Ryan Vojtesak and Taylor Phillips wrote "Thinkin' Bout Me." Byron, Gorley, and Vojtesak also teamed up to write Wallen's hit song from One Thing at a Time, "Last Night."
