Morgan Wallen can't get to a chorus without singing about drinking on his new album. It's true and I'm going to prove it!
Party boy and music superstar, Morgan Wallen, either loves drinking, or just loves singing about it! Morgan released his 36-track album, "One Thing At A Time," in March of 2023. When I listened through for the first time I noticed that there were a lot of songs about drinking. There were catchy and clever metaphors about alcohol and a lot of nights finding himself in "neon bars." (And let me be clear, those are my favorite songs of his!)
Morgan Wallen Revived Party Guy
Morgan Wallen is no stranger to the party scene. In March of 2020, he was kicked out of Kid Rock's Big Ass Honky Tonk Rock N' Roll Steakhouse in Nashville for being too intoxicated. He got in verbal altercations with people as nearby police officers watched. And then, who can forget the night he used a racial slur outside of his home in February of 2021? TMZ caught the moment on camera, and sadly, Morgan's career was on thin ice with the radio industry and recording industry for almost two years.
Radio stations are playing Morgan Wallen again. His music is the most-streamed of any country artist, and his shows sell out before fans even have a fighting chance to buy a ticket.
While it seems like all of songs are about drinking, you're pretty much correct. But, there are only TWO songs on his 36-song album that don't have alcohol even mentioned in it! (I'll let you scroll and see which ones they are).
Here's Morgan Wallen's "One Thing At A Time" album broken down by how quickly or how slowly he sings about booze/whiskey/barstools etc. Enjoy! What song do you think he sings about whiskey in the first line? See below!

Is she better off without me or right here with me?

Enough to show up with you on your arm
We were never gonna be two kids on a farm"
Cowgirls (feat. ERNEST): 70 Seconds
"I hate that I love the way them kisses taste like whiskey
How they wake up, take on off and not even miss me
Leave this heart broken, holding that smokin' gun
I guess that's just the way them wild horses run
Let 'em run"
Tennessee Numbers: 63 Seconds
"Damn, it's good to hear your voice
Feels like it's been forever
Ask her how's her mom and them
And how's that west coast weather?
Yeah, I know it's late, I'm sorry
No, I swear I ain't that drunk
I know she won't and I don't blame her
But if she ever picked it up
I'd tell her it's my fault and I still love her
But she quit taking calls from Tennessee numbers"
Keith Whitley: 58 Seconds
"Good whiskey
Girl, it just don't last when Keith Whitley

The things I love got a way of gettin' gone too soon
Kinda like good whiskey, Keith Whitley and you"
Wine Into Water: 54 Seconds
"Cause I'm here to say sorry with a to the top glass
Of that Napa Valley vine Cabernet
Girl, I couldn't go to bed, let another second pass
Without you and me being okay
So, let's get to the bottom of these problems
And this bottle before that moonlight quits
And turn this wine into water under the bridge"
I Deserve A Drink: 53 Seconds

"When you're tastin' what he's drinkin', are you thinkin' 'bout me?
When you're ridin' where he's drivin', are you missin' my street?
Every time you close your eyes, tell me, who do you see?

Comin' over tonight, wish that truck in your drive was mine
Just like you know it's supposed to be"
180 (Lifestyle): 42 Seconds
"She used to show up in her high heels
Now she's barefoot in a Friday night field
Turn her nose up at the whiskey

She wants to move on out to who knows where
She gots some down home, she just found it
She got the whole town thinking that she grew up there, yeah"
Dying Man: 39 Seconds

To a set on dying man"

Tennessee Fan: 26 Seconds
"They beat us every damn year
It's been a minute since we pulled out a win
I loaded the truck down with beer
Drove down to watch ’em do it again
And they did so we went to the bar right after
Met a girl with a houndstooth print of her chapter on her shirt
And it turned into talkin' all night
She came back with me across the Vol' state line"
Everything I Love: 25 Seconds
"I wish I woulda met you anywhere but where I did
Some ol' high rise town that I won't ever go again
Wish we woulda rolled around in some old cab and chased them city lights
And hit bars I don't like"
In The Bible (feat HARDY): 25 Seconds
"Paint your truck tread with some red dust
While you kick up the long way home
Share some bootleg with your best buds
Wear a bit of that bonfire smoke
If a back porch swing and twang in your words
And settin' that hook was a Good Book verse
I'd be doin' alright
I'd know where I's goin' when I get to the other side 'cause
Backroads and cold beer"
Thought You Should Know: 25 Seconds
"What's goin' on, mama?
Something just dawned on me
I ain't been home in some months

You've been losin' sleep since '93"
Sunrise: 25 Seconds
"On my Fridays when it's whiskey, I go back to Cincy
That Ohio night you tricked me into buying all your shots

I been tryna get away from you for a while now
But there ain't no settin' you down"

Find peace on the porch from the war inside"

Hometown said, 'I don't think Jesus done it that way'"
Whiskey Friends: 16 Seconds
"Yeah, I'm always down for two beers

It's usually what I do here, but not tonight

Funny all the things you realize
When that 20/20 hindsight vision opens up your eyes"
Man Made A Bar (feat. Eric Church): 15 Seconds
Sat down on a barstool, like a dern fool
'Cause she walked out again

Been staying busy since the first night
It's a story old as time"
Me + All Your Reasons: 15 Seconds
"Smoke on my clothes, liquor on my breath
Devil on my shoulder, strangers in my bed
Pills in my pocket, ashes on the floor
These bad decisions keep on knockin' on my door
I know you think you left me all alone
I hate to say you couldn't be more wrong, got
Copenhagen, whiskey straight, and
Empty bottle, promise breakin'..."
Money On Me: 15 Seconds
"If you're lookin' for a drink, if you're lookin' for a dance
If you're lookin' for a wreck in your Friday night plans
Lookin' for your name in a heart on the wall
Lookin' for a number you ain't ever gonna call again
I got ya, I'll type it in
But, baby, if you're looking for"
Good Girl Gone Missin': 14 Seconds
"Bar lights
Bar stool

Long neck
Long hair
Last call, we the first ones outta there

Too drunk to be hungover
Last night still on my breath"

That neon wrapped right around her like a smoky halo
We talked for almost an hour over sours
I told her, 'Girl, tell me how you're in this bar all alone?'"
You Proof: 9 Seconds
"Yeah, I've been throwin' down the whiskey
I ought to get my money back

Shootin' doubles like it's nothin'
Aw, but nothin' makes you go away"
Days That End In Why: 9 Seconds
"Been playin' twenty questions with twenty-four cans

In this half full bed
Looking for a reason that
I ain't found yet"
