The Lee Brice Rumor song was was released to radio on July 16, 2018 as the second single from Brice’s self-titled studio album. Lee Brice and Sara have been happily married since April 21, 2013. The country crooner’s music video gives fans a glimpse into their marriage. Since “Rumor” is about a couple taking the next step together, there was no one more qualified than his wife to star in the song’s new music video.
“The idea behind the video was essentially us making the ‘Rumor’ true,” Lee Brice told PEOPLE. “One area of our lives that we have to work so hard at is ‘us time.’ Between three children, and me being on the road so much, it’s important that I show Sara she’s loved and appreciated as much as I possibly can. So this is a video romanticizing about a special night out together — just us.”
“When I recorded the song, I wanted it to be gritty and honest so I wanted to play every instrument I could — I especially wanted to put my simple but hopefully hooky guitars down just how I wanted them,” the South Carolina native added. “As the song’s producer, I also wanted to keep the track emotional, raw and soulful.”
“So while the video’s storyline may not be an exact script of the song lyric, its ‘feel’ is exactly what we were after. And tell me … how freaking breathtaking is Sara?”
It’s truly inspiring to see such a happy country couple making life work together despite their busy schedules!
This music video became the most popular of his career with over 145 Million views as of March of 2023. Check out the “Rumor” video and see the written lyrics below…
Lee Brice Rumor Music Video
The song is a mid-tempo ballad that tells the story of a small town where rumors and gossip spread quickly, and how one particular rumor about two people being seen together can quickly escalate and become the talk of the town. The lyrics suggest that the rumors may be true, and that the two people in question may be having a secret relationship, but it also highlights the power of words and how they can hurt people and damage reputations.
“Rumor” was co-written by Brice, along with Ashley Gorley and Kyle Jacobs.
Lee Brice Rumor Lyrics
Girl you know I’ve known you forever
How many nights we hung out together
Same little crowd, little bar, little town
Round this old dance floor
My boys are laughing and tap me on the shoulder
Making a motion like “Could y’all get any closer”
They wanna know what’s up when I’m still holding ya
Even when the song is over
There’s a rumor going round about me and you
Stirring up our little town the last week or two
So tell me why we even trying to deny this feeling
I feel, don’t you feel it too?
There’s a rumor going round, and round, and round
What’d you say we make it true?
We make it true
Oh, we make it true
Well I can shut ’em down, tell them all they’re crazy
I can do whatever you want me to do, baby
Or you could lay one on me right now
We could really give them something to talk about
There’s a rumor going round about me and you
Stirring up our little town the last week or two
So tell me why we even trying to deny this feeling
I feel, don’t you feel it too?
There’s a rumor going round, and round, and round
What’d you say we make it true, baby?
Oh be honest girl now
Do you want to do this or not?
Should we keep them talking, girl
Or should we just make them stop?
There’s a rumor going round about me and you
Stirring up our little town the last week or two
So, tell me why we even trying to deny this feeling
I feel, don’t you feel it too?
There’s a rumor going round, and round, and round
What’d you say we make it
Make it true?
What’d you say we make it true?
Come on over here
Let’s really give them something to talk about, baby
There’s a rumor going round
Overall, “Rumor” is a relatable and emotionally charged song that captures the small-town atmosphere and the power of rumors and gossip.
