New Money - Commentary

Fire and Brimstone is the name of Brantley Gilbert's brand new album
Which is out today and we have the pleasure of talking to Brantley right now
And this next song, New Money
I can almost see you with a sly grin on your face
When you were writing this one with Rhett, Brock and Brandon

Well, it's kinda tongue in cheek
Kinda just a fun song
I think we all got to talking about
Out punting our coverage and marrying up
I'm this rough dude, I'm not very pretty
But looks like award shows when my wife shows up
It's like she's shining, man
I'm just a guy walking with her and I love that
That's kinda what that one's about
It's just my wife making me look good

You know, it's funny because there is kinda this thread
That runs through this album of you feeling like you won the lottery
When you got Amber and maybe you did out punt your coverage
In New Money, there's that line, "Way out of my league, don't know what she sees"
And of course Bad Boy, the whole song is basically that idea
And then in Man of Steel, you say, "I don't know what she sees in me"
And so, ah, it seems to me like you don't give yourself enough credit
'Cause I think if we talk to Amber, she would probably say
You know what? I got lucky too, and he did not out punt his coverage

And I just love your relationship
And I love this song just because it is so fun
It's called New Money from Brantley Gilbert
As we celebrate his new album Fire and Brimstone today
