It may only be Christmas Eve, Morgan Wallen has treated fans to an early Christmas gift, with the Sneedville megastar taking to his socials to tease a brand new song.
The unreleased track, which appears to be titled ‘Since You Got Gone’, finds the ‘Lies, Lies, Lies’ hitmaker crooning pensively across an undulating, atmospheric instrumental.
Morgan Wallen reflects on how he feels like his outlook has improved following a recent break-up, “I'm still a few too many on a Friday night / I still try to step in when it ain't my fight / I'm still me, don't get me wrong / But I've got better since you got gone”.
Although more decidedly country, ‘Since You Got Gone’ still captures the breezy, hazy ambience that pervades Morgan Wallen's Latin-inspired latest single, ‘Love Somebody’.
Wallen accompanied the surprise snippet with a playful caption, explaining that he penned ’Since You Got Gone’ very recently, which excitingly means his next project is well underway, “Rough demo verse chorus of a song we wrote the other day. I do believe I like it”.
A slew of fellow artists have echoed Morgan Wallen's enthusiasm about the new track, with Wallen's good buddy, ERNEST, commenting, “I do believe it's a heater”, while another of his frequent collaborators, HARDY, responded, “🚀 THAT WAYYY”.
The clip comes shortly after rapper BigXThaPlug confirmed he has a feature from Morgan Wallen on a new country EP, as well as Post Malone, Luke Combs, Jelly Roll and more.
There's no release date as of yet for ‘Since You Got Gone’, but judging by the positive reaction it's been receiving so far from fans, we think Morgan Wallen has no choice but to include it on his forthcoming studio album, which is expected to drop in 2025.
We're keeping our fingers crossed it's joined on the tracklist by other unreleased fan-favourites, such as ‘Come Back as a Redneck’, ‘I Guess’ and ‘Good to See You Smile’.
In the meantime, we're just glad to see the arrival of Morgan Wallen's next project seems to be inching closer, with the ‘Thought You Should Know’ singer-songwriter's fourth studio album shaping up to be one of the biggest releases of 2025.
For the full lyrics so far to Morgan Wallen's ‘Since You Got Gone’, see below:
“Everything's still pretty much the same 'round here
My neighbors still shootin' all of next years deer
Boys still lose, but their playin' at home
But I've got better since you got gone
I'm still a few too many on a Friday night
I still try to step in when it ain't my fight
I'm still me, don't get me wrong
But I've got better since you got gone
-
Swear it was like "I'll be damned"
I'm finally back to bein' who I am
When we were over, it was overnight
Light came on, it all felt right, when it all went wrong
You turned me loose
Wasn't no tellin' who I turned into
But it turns out me and you together's why it took so long
'Cause I've got better since you got gone”
