For You
7. Thank God by Kane Brown With Katelyn Brown

13. Ain’t That Some by Morgan Wallen
This rap-influenced country track by Morgan Wallen tips one’s hat to the Southern way of life by listing country stereotypes. It even includes jargon southerners use while fishing – such as a honey hole, a specific spot in a body of water perfect for catching fish.
