North Carolina native Chris Lane collaborated with Grammy-nominated pop star Tori Kelly to produce one of the most popular country songs of the year. The tracks title, “Take Back Home Girl,” features a creative play on words. At first, it sounds like the song is simply another glimpse into the one-night stand lifestyle. However, “Take Back Home Girl” is actually a cute story about Lane taking a girl back to meet his parents for the first time. As for the collaboration, Lane told People, “They asked me from the beginning who would be a dream collaboration for me, and Tori was the first person I said.”

“Take Back Home Girl” Lyrics
Duffle bag, backseat
My dash, your feet
Those other side of the highway headlights making you shine
My hand, your leg
Playlist playing
Even though I haven’t made it yet
I’m dragging it, dropping it in my mind
You’re a drive real slow, down a one lane road
To a house on a hill where the wild things grow
You wake up in pajamas, not a trace of makeup on ya
You’re a help her fix it, having breakfast with my momma
You’re a take back home, home, home girl
Home, home, home girl
Take back home, home, home girl
Home, home, home girl
You’re the kind I wanna take a ride with
Sit by on a Friday night
In the stadium lights, side by side
All the ladies like, Yeah, she’s doing just fine”
Everybody in the bleachers, they all gon’ want to meet ya
From my teacher to my preacher
My little crowd pleaser
Parading with you feeling homecoming cool, yeah
I wanna drive real slow, down a one lane road
To a house on a hill where the wild things grow
You’re wake up in pajamas, not a trace of makeup on ya
You’re a help her fix it, having breakfast with my momma
You’re a take back home, home, home girl
Home, home, home girl
Take back home, home, home girl
Home, home, home girl
You’re a take back, you’re a take back
You’re a take back home girl
You’re a take back home
You’re a take back home girl
You got that down home, homegrown, found on good ground soul
That down home, home grown, found on good ground soul
You’re a drive real slow, down a one lane road
To a house on a hill where the wild things grow
You’re wake up in pajamas, not a trace of makeup on ya
You’re a help her fix it, having breakfast with my momma
You’re a take back home, home, home girl
Home, home, home girl
Take back home, home, home girl
Home, home, home girl
You’re a take back, you’re a take back
You’re a take back home girl
You’re a take back home, yeah
You’re a take back home girl
You’re a take back home
