In May 2020, Combs released the studio single "Six Feet Apart". This single quickly became popular to listeners as it illustrated the challenges of life during the COVID-19 pandemic. In June 2020, Combs confirmed his next single would be Lovin' on You, which was released on both his second album and the EP The Prequel, which predated the album.
Combs announced a deluxe version of What You See Is What You Get, titled What You See Ain't Always What You Get, with five new songs; it was released on October 23, 2020. The track "Forever After All" set streaming records in country music on Apple Music and Spotify.
Beer Can
Luke Combs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Minimum wage and overtime
But here comes a few days of unpaid vacation
And there ain't no way, Jose, I'll waste 'em
'Cause there ain't no better feeling than when
I pick up a beer can
And get to feeling like Superman
I'm gonna throw back a couple and
Keep 'em glued to my right hand
Any flavor, size, or brand
Until the point where I can't stand
No, nothing picks me up like a beer can
Well, I woke up at 1 pm
And introduced myself to my new girlfriend
And there's a wrecking-ball-sized hole in the wall in the basement
I ain't got no clue how or who could've made it
Well, all I know is shit hit the fan
And here we go again
So I pick up a beer can
And get to feeling like Superman
It's Saturday, y'all, here's a plan
I'm gonna throw back a couple and
Keep 'em glued to my right hand
Any flavor, size, or brand
Until the point where I can't stand
No, nothing picks me up like a beer can
Well, it's Sunday now and I'm freaking out
'Cause I can't handle five days without
Yeah, I'm picking up a beer can
And get to feeling like Superman
It's Sunday, who gives a damn?
I'm gonna throw back a couple and
Keep 'em glued to my right hand
Any flavor, size, or brand
'Til the point where I can't stand
No, nothing picks me up like a beer can
Like a beer can
No, nothing picks me up like a beer can
The song "Beer Can" by Luke Combs is a fun and upbeat tune depicting a man's weekend of heavy drinking. The first verse describes the singer's job and explains how he is excited about having some time off from work. He is eager to spend the weekend drinking and getting drunk. In the chorus, he explains how nothing picks him up like a beer can, and how it makes him feel like "superman." He then proceeds to drink all weekend, taking down any flavor, size, or brand of beer he can get his hands on. The second verse wakes up with a new girlfriend, a hole in the wall, and is eager to start drinking again. The final chorus is dedicated to Sunday, where he explains how he needs to keep the good times going and how he is still feeling the effects of the beer can.
The song is a light-hearted approach to drinking, and although some people may not agree with the message, it is an accurate representation of the drinking culture in America. The lyrics give the listener an insight into the mindset of someone who just wants to get drunk over the weekend without any care in the world. Overall, the song is fun, catchy, and represents the mindset of many Americans who just want to let loose and party on the weekends.
