Whitey sings songs these people can relate to. In much the same way his grandfather and mentor did over 3 decades ago, to a whole generation of southern transplants who came up US-23 to Flint looking for the good life. Whitey sings it straight, with an urgency that'll help people forget their problems for a few hours and serve as the guideline for drinking the sorrows away. The halftime groove brings out everyone's dancing shoes and while Whitey and the 78's play, the world is a tiny bit better place.
Since the release of their first album Honky Tonks and Cheap Motels, Whitey and the band have revived a forgotten genre with a fierce dedication and determination. They've toured the country spreading their sound and real deal vibe everywhere they go. They play honky-tonk tunes in any club in any town without apology and with a purpose. Look out, this bad news sounds real good.
For about 200 shows a year you can count on Whitey Morgan and the 78's to deliver. Whitey's whiskey tinged vocals, the 78's boot stomping beats, all stirring up dance floors and elevating spirits. In this world, there isn't a person who couldn't use this kinda release every now and again.

All night baby we don’t mention no
Hit my phone so I can come
Nobody else can ever know
White interior like phantom
Ceiling star for the light show o
Are you serious? 'Cause I’m man down
I feel like I just hit the lotto o
Globe like Disco
All the lights shine
Multi-color show like I'm seeing bussdown
Feelings come up when the lights come down
Gotta let them know, I’m the one who runs town
Slow wine victim another man down
You’re too crazy omo meka find out
Soft as baby make it make a sound now
Your turn is coming up
Let’s see you
Break your back

Enjoyment till’ we all die

To show us that she is a baddie
She don’t need a tongue
Pool party for the after go get your bikinis on
Afro for move we don’t play no other song
She too litty off the liquor Dom Perignon
And she trynna’ love on me cause I got millions
The lyrics to "Back to Back" by Whitey Morgan and the 78's describe the singer's struggle to let go of a past love. As the leaves fall and summer fades away, the singer reflects on his lost love and wonders if he can move on or if he'll be stuck in the past forever. He questions whether he's done all he can to salvage the relationship or if there's one thing he can do to bring them back together. The second verse paints a picture of the singer getting lost in daydreams of a happy ending with his love, only to be woken up to the reality of their broken relationship. He contemplates whether he should stay and try to endure the heartache or leave in search of his lost love.
The chorus repeats the sentiment that no matter what the singer decides to do, he will always come running back to his love if she wants him. He's willing to wade through water and climb among the stars to be with her again, all she has to do is say the word. The song ends on this note of hope, that despite the pain and uncertainty of a lost love, the singer still holds hope that they can be reunited.
Overall, "Back to Back" is a classic country ballad that captures the emotions of heartbreak and longing for lost love. The lyrics are simple and straightforward, but the emotion behind them is palpable. The song speaks to the universal experience of trying to move on from someone but finding that they still hold a grip on your heart.
