Sarah Lake – “Johnnie” single

“Back at the bar where you crushed my heart like a PBR. I ain’t here to reminisce, I came to sip on a new start. Met a top-shelf guy with deep blue eyes and a killer tan. Only took one round now I found myself a brand-new man. His name is Johnny Walker; he ain’t a big talker, but, baby, he’s so damn smooth. He gets me so hot he hits the right spot. He does it so much better than you.” – lyrics

‘Johnnie’ tells a bittersweet tale about a young woman and her bottle of whiskey. Apparently, Johnnie is helping her put the pieces of her broken heart back together. Say what you want, Johnnie may not be forever, but in her mind, he sure tastes better than her ex-partner. Later, she admits, “He’d never tell a lie, he stays right by my side like a gentleman. And he loves me just the way I am.”

‘Johnnie’ contains a creative narrative and ear-pleasing vocals that will resonate well with fans of authentic Country music. The vintage tune possesses guitar-laden instrumentation flavored with Country and Americana elements. Furthermore, “Johnnie” serves as a tasty appetizer to what listeners can expect to hear from Sarah Lake in the near future as she continues to release new impactful music.

“He gets me so hot he hits the right spot.”
