"The song is a true representation of what I like doing. ‘Fishing in the morning, drinking in the afternoon, stay up late with my guitar.’
"I do all of this on a regular basis and I’m proud to say this song came from the heart, laying bare my everyday experiences.
"The irony being, instead of sounding less American country, it makes me sound even more American country!”
