Songfacts®:

  • Jordan Rager has described this cut as a "kind of anthem for troublemakers."

    If it wasn't drinking, it was smoking
    If it wasn't smoking, it was spitting Skoal
    If it could drive hell yeah, we drove it
    Just like it was getting stolen


    Rager explained to Taste of Country: "Sometimes when you grow up in a small town, it's easy to get bored and come up with creative things to do to have fun."
  • Jordan Rager penned this cut with Thomas Archer and Cole Taylor. Writing his own songs is important to the singer. "A lot of things that I can't say and can't get out I put on paper and I sing," he related.
