Country music singer-songwriter Sam Hunt's "Breaking Up Was Easy In The 90's" brings back some nostalgic feelings. Check it out here!
Country music star Sam Hunt has released the music video for his current country radio hit, “Breaking Up Was Easy In The 90’s.” Directed by Justin Clough, the video offers an element of somber gravity as it follows the story of a man just released from prison still haunted by the past and unsure of the path forward. Watch it below!
The song, written by Sam Hunt, Chris La Corte, Zach Crowell, Ernest K. Smith and Josh Osborne, is the follow up to back-to-back No. 1 hits “Hard To Forget” and “Kinfolks” off Hunt’s chart-topping album SOUTHSIDE.
Man, oh man, oh man
Bartender looked at me like, “Pony up man, we’re closing down”
I paid the tab and I turned around
Got on that phone on the way home
Ended up down the rabbit hole again
Funny how you haven’t changed a bit but you’re twice as pretty
I’m glad you finally got to see New York City
And I know it’s not a race
But it looks like you’re gettin’ over me faster than I’m gettin’ over you
But hey, what you gon’ do?
I’m sick of sittin’ at the house, dyin’ on my phone
Wishin’ I was somewhere I can be alone
Try to let you go but somethin’ always reminds me
I bet breakin’ up was easy in the ’90s
I’m tired of gettin’ drunk, tired of bein’ free
Tired of seein’ pictures I don’t wanna see
Girl you’re everywhere, everywhere but behind me
I bet breakin’ up was easy in the ’90s
Back then I could’ve convinced myself that maybe you called when I was out
And you didn’t know what to say so you didn’t leave a message
And that you’re probably at home right now, sound asleep
‘Cause going out isn’t really your thing
And I wouldn’t have a clue what you’ve been up to lately
Or who you’ve been up to it with
But when I don’t miss your calls, I miss you calling
And I go ’round and ’round again
I’m sick of sittin’ at the house, dyin’ on my phone
Wishin’ I was somewhere I can be alone
Try to let you go but somethin’ always reminds me
I bet breakin’ up was easy in the ’90s
I’m tired of gettin’ drunk, tired of bein’ free
Tired of seein’ pictures I don’t wanna see
Girl you’re everywhere, everywhere but behind me
I bet breakin’ up was easy in the ’90s
Modern love leads to modern hearts breaking
I’m just a product of my generation
And I ’bout had enough watchin’ you gettin’ on with your life
Baby, I’m sick of sittin’ at the house, dyin’ on my phone
Wishin’ I was somewhere I can be alone
I try to let you go but somethin’ always reminds me
I bet breakin’ up was easy in the ’90s
I’m tired of gettin’ drunk, tired of bein’ free
Tired of seein’ pictures I don’t wanna see
Girl you’re everywhere, everywhere but behind me
I bet breakin’ up was easy in the ’90s
