1. “You Make It Easy”
Song year: 2018
“You Make It Easy” is about a country singer enjoying his life with his significant other. She inspires his country hits, lifts him when he is down, and brings out his best traits. It didn’t matter if he was a bit callous at times. That behavior did not affect her, and she loved him unconditionally regardless.
Aldean’s wife, Brittany Kerr, was the main inspiration behind this song. They got married in March 2015. The couple are still together today.
2. “Burnin' It Down”
Song year: 2014
“Burnin’ It Down” is about an inseparable couple who have become a dynamic duo. She loves to hear him sing his songs as they drink Jack Daniels together. He likes it when she listens to him sing. Through the beautiful imagery of the lyrics, it is implied that they love the intimacy together whether they are getting buzzed on Jack Daniels or sober.
3. “Tonight Looks Good on You”
Song year: 2015
“Tonight Looks Good on You” is about a man who is courting a woman, perhaps on their first string of dates. He loves anything that she wears and whatever she wants to talk about.

4. “Drowns the Whiskey” Featuring Miranda Lambert
Song year: 2018
“Drowns the Whiskey ” is a country tune about a broken relationship between lovers that drinking whiskey cannot even numb the aching pain in their hearts.
The 2018 hit peaked at #32 on the Billboard Hot 100 during the 19 weeks on the chart. It’s the second collaboration between Aldean and Lambert since their first duet, “Grown Woman,” in 2007 for his Relentless album. The song was originally not written to get sung as a duet, but Aldean thought Lambert had the perfect voice for the backing vocals.
5. “Fly Over States”
Song year: 2010
Jason Aldean reflects on flying in a plane to play for musical tours throughout the country while showing love to where he grew up in Macon, Georgia outskirts of a small town. He speaks personally to his fans that grew up in the heartlands of the Midwestern United States like he did, otherwise known as the flyover country.
The song appeared on Aldean's My Kinda Party album in 2010. However, it debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in 2012. The tune peaked at #32 during its 20 weeks on the chart.
6. “Why”
Song year: 2005
The song narrator in “Why” acknowledges how much he and his girlfriend constantly fight with each other. He touches on his regret for acting out of line with the harsh words he says to the point that his lover cries in frustration.
Ultimately, the narrator wonders why he is so callous with his words during their heated arguments. No clear solution to his internal issue gets reached, with the song left on a cliffhanger regarding whether the couple got back together or stayed separated.
7. “My Kinda Party”
Song year: 2010
Jason Aldean highlights his favorite way to have fun at parties. He drives a vintage 1968 vehicle and likes to have fun with great drinks and a lovely time with his woman.
Aldean does not mind if his lover delights in alcoholic beverages as long as they can stay together for the night for her safety. He even offers her what seems to be a one-night stand when comparing themselves to Romeo and Juliet. Hence, he loves the fun of living in the moment when attending parties.
8. “Don't You Wanna Stay” Featuring Kelly Clarkson
Song year: 2010
The notable country singer wanted to collaborate with Kelly Clarkson, but he was waiting on the best song where her vocals would be best suited. “Don’t You Wanna Stay” was that song, which peaked at #31 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2011 and remained on the chart for 31 consecutive dates.
The country heartstring tugger is about two lovers falling more for each other. When they are supposed to part ways to go home for the night, they prefer to stay together instead. They touch on the lovely feeling of falling asleep beside the one that they love.
9. “Big Green Tractor”
Song year: 2009
It’s a country date with a man and his gal on a large green tractor in this song. Aldean sets the romantic setting with colorful lyrics painting the picture of the song narrator’s date with his gal.
They can enjoy the sky on a moonlit night as she puts his arms around him as he drives. It’s a unique and intimate form of transportation, going into one of the small towns of Georgia to see the sights or to eat dinner.
10. “Amarillo Sky”
Song year: 2005
The music video for “Amarillo Sky” opens up with some young Illinois-based farmers talking about their experiences with taking over the family business now that they are adults.
Three years after McBride and the Ride released this song in May 2002, Aldean sang the lyrics in his way. The song peaked at #4 hit on the Billboard Hot Country Songs List in 2007.
“Amarillo Sky” is primarily about generational farming. The farmers hope for success in their crops and desire for the business to be fruitful as they pass it on to future generations.
