Luke Bryan is giving fans their first taste of his upcoming seventh studio album with the release of his new single, āKnockinā Boots.ā
Co-penned by Hillary Lindsey, Gordie Sampson and Jon Nite, āKnockinā Bootsā was helmed by Lukeās longtime producers Jeff Stevens and Jody Stevens. The tune will ship to country radio on April 8.
āFrom the moment I heard this song I knew I had to get in the studio and record it,ā says Luke. āI just couldnāt get it out of my head. This may be the fastest turnaround I have ever done with a song.ā
Listen to āKnockinā Bootsā below.
āKnockinā Bootsā Lyrics
This truck needs a half tank
These wheels need a two lane
This radio needs three songs to play
To get me ācross town to you
That dress needs to slip off
That hair needs to come down
Friday nights need to do what Friday nights need to do
Thatās the truth
Chorus
Yeah, birds need bees and ice needs whiskey
Boys like me need girls like you to kiss me
āFishinā In The Darkā needs Nitty Gritty
Under that pale moon
Sweet tea needs that sugar stirring
Small town nights need both ends burning
Shades need drawing, hearts need falling
Boots need knockinā
Knockinā boots
Knockinā boots
Me and you
Ohhhhh
Long weeks need a weekend
Cheap drinks need a slinginā
That dance floor needs some me on you
And you on me tonight
Sing-alongs need to be sung
Tip bells need to be rung
Last calls need a ācall that cabā
And backseats need āI want you so badā
Repeat Chorus
Doors need shuttinā
Lights need cuttinā
Lips need lockinā
Boots need knockinā and
Repeat Chorus
Knockinā boots
