Content
The song is about a young boy growing up and becoming a man in a country setting. Aldean said he thought the song would be relevant, as he is a father of two children himself. Both of his children and his wife appear in the song's corresponding music video.[2] Chris Piner of American Songwriter wrote that the song's lyrics are about "taking pride in his country, learning about southern manners, and wanting nothing more than to spend hours and hours outside".[3]
