Luke Bryan Shares New Track, "Huntin", Fishin" and Lovin" Every Day," With ...

Luke Bryans highly anticipated record Kill the Lightsis set for release on Friday (Aug. 7), but for those fans who just cant wait, the singer has released yet another song from the project, Huntin, Fishin and Lovin Every Day.

The song, which is the 12th tune on Kill the Lights, is an ode to Southern living and Bryan, who grew up on a peanut farm in small-town Georgia, certainly knows a lot about that subject. The upbeat, mid-tempo song praises the easy way of life as a small-town Southern boy.

If I could make a living walking in the woods / You can bet Id be sitting pretty good / High on a hill, looking at a field downwind, Bryan sings. If I could make a nickel off of turning em bass / Never worry about the price of gas / Id be wheelin and dealin and sitting there reelin em in.

From black coffee in the morning to dark whiskey in the evening, walking in the woods to hanging out knee-deep in Muckalee Creek, Bryan asks listeners to come along with me and enjoy that outdoor life.

Huntin, fishin and lovin every day / Thats the prayer that a country boy prays / Thank G*d He made me this way, Bryan sings.

Photos of Bryan fishing and enjoying the great outdoors, all while sporting his telltale grin, are interspersed throughout the lyric video a nod to the fact that the country superstar loves a life thats filled with well, huntin, fishin and lovin, every day. The clip also features panoramic views of water, sky, woods and more and the imagery, coupled with the lyrics, will have fans ready to run outside and breathe in the fresh country air.

Kill the Lightsfeatures 13 tracks and three Target exclusive tracks. In the weeks leading up to its release, Bryan has revealed several other songs, including thetitle track, and also released a brand-new app for fans.

Luke Bryan Announces 2015 Kick the Dust Up Tour

Thereigning CMA Entertainer of the Year is making plans that will, no doubt, lead him back into the running to hold onto that crown come November.

Sidebar Why Country Music Was Drunk All Year in 2014

Luke Bryan unveiled major plans for 2015 during a press conference today at Nashville's Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. The first and biggest announcement was the 2015 Kick the Dust Up Tour, which begins May 8th in Grand Forks, North Dakota. For the first time in his career, the country superstar will do double duty on some of his tour stops, staying for two nights of shows in 13 cities, including Dallas, Chicago and Philadelphia.

"The ability to go into a city and stay two nights is something I could only ever dream of," Bryan says. "It's amazing that we're in this spot, and I can't thank you fans enough for allowing it to go down."

Seven one-night stadium shows are also on tap in St. Paul, Minnesota; Santa Clara, California; Cincinnati, Ohio; Cleveland, Ohio; Denver; Detroit and Bryan's adopted hometown of Nashville, where he will play Vanderbilt University's football stadium. "I wanna bring the I.Q. down for one night there," jokes Bryan, who will be the first-ever country act to play Vanderbilt's stadium, following the likes of the Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd and U2.

Another first for Bryan's career will be international shows added to his lineup, with stops planned for Norway, Sweden, Ireland, Germany and the U.K. Opening acts for the entire trek will be Randy Houser and Dustin Lynch, with Florida Georgia Line and Thomas Rhett joining the stateside stadium shows.

Two months before Bryan kicks the dust up, he'll perform his seventh annual and last Spring Break shows in Panama City Beach, Florida. The free, two-day event has seen crowds of some 200,000 pack the beach to see the country phenom, who releases a Spring Break-themed EP each year in conjunction with the shows. Set for March 11th and 12th this year, the Luke Bryan Spring Break run will come to an end with a final EP, Spring Break... Checkin' Out, to be released March 10th, along with a deluxe Spring Break CD compilation.

"We're going to end it on a big bang. It's been an amazing run. If you look at how we entered our spring break process, we just wanted to go play music on the beach," says the 38-year-old singer, who quotes Hank Williams Jr.'s "All My Rowdy Friends" as his humorous explanation for ending the run: "The hangovers hurt worse than they used to!"

The new Spring Break music will be followed by Bryan's fifth studio album, for which he says he's recorded four songs so far. The Kick the Dust Up Tour is named after one of those tracks.

In between his beach party and international travels, the Georgia native will once again co-host the ACM Awards with Blake Shelton. The live broadcast is set for April 19th, with nominations to be announced January 27th. It's very likely one of Bryan's four ACM trophies will be on display at a new exhibit opening at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum this May. Running through November, the exhibit will include memorabilia spanning the singer's years from the songwriting son of a peanut farmer to a platinum-selling stadium filler.

And if 2015 still doesn't sound eventful enough for the "Roller Coaster" crooner... "We have other things in store," Bryan teases. "I have crazy ideas for offshoots and new music, so stay tuned."
