00:00All right, y'all, I want to play y'all one.
00:03It's called Heart Like a Truck, and it's my current single right now.
00:08And I'll tell you, sometimes as a songwriter, you think you know exactly what you're writing about.
00:12And I did write this song for anybody and everybody who's been through heartbreak, hard times, hard luck, you name it.
00:19We've all been there.
00:21But I feel like I can be honest with y'all tonight and tell y'all that the last three months of my life
00:26have been the best months of my life professionally.
00:30I feel like things are really finally coming to fruition.
00:34But on the personal side of things, we thought we were going to lose my daddy this year.
00:40And he spent two months in an ICU in Houston and three weeks in a rehab facility.
00:45And he's actually home now, and he's going to walk me on the CMA carpet this week.
00:49And I'll tell you, he's the toughest man I know.
01:00His name is Brian Wilson, and I'm not talking about the Beach Boys.
01:03I'm talking about the cowboy.
01:04I'm talking about the farmer.
01:05I'm talking about the horse trader.
01:07He is a tough son of a gun.
01:08He taught me how to pull up my bootstraps when times get tough.
01:11And now I'm having to tell him the same exact thing.
01:14So if anybody's got a heart like a truck, it is my daddy Brian Wilson, and I want to sing this one for him tonight.
