Everyone has a hillbilly bone inside them, according to Blake Shelton in this song. It might take the sound of a fiddle or fine-looking country queen to bring it out, but it's there. It's a rather welcoming song, inviting everyone - even New Yorkers - to join in the fun.
This song of rural pride is the title track and first single from Blake Shelton's second extended play. The track was co-written by Luke Laird, whose credits include Carrie Underwood's "Temporary Home" and "So Small." The other co-writer was Craig Wiseman whose "Live Like You Were Dying," which he penned for Tim McGraw, earned him the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Country Song.
The song features guest vocals from Trace Adkins. When asked by Yahoo Music why the You're Gonna Miss This singer was chosen to duet with him on this cut, Shelton noted, "Mostly just because it sounds like a Trace Adkins song. When I heard it, I thought, why didn't Trace get his hands on it first?" He added, "I feel like he's really a friend. And when all this is over, we'll still be friends."
