Tennessee Orange
This 2022 song makes you think of someone you should call.
“Mama, forgive me, I like him a lot / Hell, I’m learning the words to Old Rocky Top / And he’s got a smile that makes me forget / I’ve always looked better in red”
I Should Go To Bed
This breakup song makes you want to call someone you haven’t spoken to in a while.
“Someone told me that you were comin’ / So I should probably go to bed / I should probably turn off my phone / I should quit while I’m ahead / I should probably leave you alone”
23
Sam Hunt’s song makes you remember a relationship that no longer exists.
“No matter where I go, no matter what I do / I’ll never be 23, with anyone but you / You can marry who you want / Go back to Tennessee / But you’ll never be 2023 with anyone but me / We’ll always have Folly Beach / We’ll always have Delta nights / We’ll always be in between real love and real life”
