Sam Hunt released his new single, “Water Under The Bridge,” which he co-wrote with Chris LaCorte, Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne. He says the tune takes him back to a local gathering place where he and his friends used to hang out making memories to last a lifetime.

“It’s a song that is literally about ‘Water Under The Bridge’ but it’s really about that little place that most small towns have,” says the Georgia native. “In my case, it was a little hangout spot down by the river up under an old backroad, and we used to gather up there – folks have been gathering up there long before we came along and I’m sure still gathering up there now – but on Friday and Saturday night go out there to have a good time, let our hair down a little bit, get into a little bit of trouble. We made a lot of memories out there.”

I can’t believe this ol’ road ain’t washed out

That no trespassing sign is still hanging around

And it’s doing about as much good now as it did back then

Yeah, you know we used to load up on Natty, unleaded and smokes

Hide from the sheriff and let down our folks

Park some old Chevy jukebox up here on the bank

Crank it ‘til the thing won’t crank

 

That muddy river, it was rollin’

We didn’t care where it was goin’

We had it made, we didn’t know it

We were young, dumb, and so full of it

Broken bottles and graffiti

Beer and girls and poppin’ wheelies

Love was fun and life was easy

Now it’s just water under the bridge

 

I kissed a girl my buddy used to like

He showed up out here and he wanted to fight

Now I still talk to him, but I don’t know where she is

Guess it’s just water under the bridge

 

That muddy river, it was rollin’

We didn’t care where it was goin’

We had it made, we didn’t know it

We were young, dumb, and so full of it

Broken bottles and graffiti

Beer and girls and poppin’ wheelies

Love was fun and life was easy

Now it’s just water under the bridge

Love was fun and life was easy

Now it’s just water under the bridge
