Ranking Every Song on Morgan Wallen's 'One Thing at a Time' Album (Taste of Country)

This isn't a review of Morgan Wallen's One Thing At a Time album as much as it is a dissection. Here are all 36 songs ranked with explanations and clips.

"Last Drive Down Main" — "Last Drive Down Main" opens with a hook that's among the least memorable on this album. "Wine Into Water" — One song had to be last, and "Wine Into Water" is it for us. "Had It" — When One Thing at a Time was announced, we wrote that because Cuban-American rapper Alex Eskeerdo Izquiedo was a co-writer, this song would "lean hard into (Wallen's) hip-hop influences." "Hope That's True" — Sonically, "Hope That's True" stands out as a quasi-beachy heartbreak song on One Thing at a Time. "Dying Man" — This closing song wraps the album with a story of redemption in the arms of a good woman. while "Me to Me" (five songs later on the album) is an uptempo bop that asks a girl to bet on him. Eric Church)" — Wallen and his hero Eric Church team up for "Man Made a Bar," a song that takes the story of God's creation one day further. "I Deserve a Drink" — "I Deserve a Drink" is a real conundrum that strives to capture the feeling of a man longing for a drink he knows he shouldn't have. "One Thing at a Time" — At its best, One Thing at a Time delivers funky guitar lines over Wallen's heartbreak. "'98 Braves" — If you had to cull One Thing at a Time Down to 12 songs, "'98 Braves" would make the cut. "Sunrise" — Should Wallen choose to perform large portions of One Thing at a Time live, he'll need to memorize a heck of a lot of lyrics. "Last Night" — The lyric that bumps "Last Night" up to No.

Maybe it’s coincidence that the song opens with a guitar intro nearly identical to “Born With a Beer in My Hand,” but it feel more like Wallen is bringing the listener full circle. Country lyrics are known for their clever wordplay and this song is no exception, as Wallen hopes to put their problems behind them “and turn this wine into water under the bridge.” “Even the devil don’t know this kind of hell,” he sings convincingly. It’s pure pop — so much so that it feels like it should be played back-to-back with Kelsea Ballerini’s similar ear worm, “Heartfirst.” Except since it’s Wallen, there’s no joy, only the acknowledgement that if he’s going to have to give up his ex, he can’t relinquish his cigarettes and liquor too. “I’ve been tryin’ to drown these demons, but damn if they don’t swim,” he sings as the knowledge that the one he loves is with someone else sinks in. An interpolation of The Allman Brothers’ “Midnight Rider” includes several lyrical references to “one more silver dollar.”

ERNEST, another good friend of Wallen’s, is a collaborator on the project in the track “Cowgirls.” HARDY and ERNEST, preparing to join Wallen on his massive One Night At A Time World Tour, had a hand in co-writing several songs on the album. “I Wrote The Book,” an introspective tune that dropped ahead of the album, also underscores Wallen’s intentions to do better as a man. I make music that I like, and I hope my fans like it.” [Bailey Zimmerman](https://musicmayhemmagazine.com/bailey-zimmerman-graciously-thanks-morgan-wallen-for-believing-in-him-beyond-grateful-for-this-guy/) will also join Wallen on all dates of the trek, with [Parker McCollum](https://musicmayhemmagazine.com/parker-mccollum-surprises-william-beckmann-with-invitation-of-a-lifetime-its-a-dream-come-true/) appearing on select dates. “So I feel like a song was one of the least things I could give her.” And I tell the truth.” This one is probably the one where I’ve got to include the most.” Those tracks are “Me And All Your Reasons,” “Single Than She Was,” “Whiskey Friends,” “One Thing At A Time,” and “Last Drive Down Main.” His role as a father deeply changed his perspective on life, and gave him reason to be a better man and fulfill his life’s purpose. And man, we just got a bunch of songs we love again and just said ‘Why not?’” By experimenting with sounds, Wallen is referring to the music that influenced and shaped him growing up, which includes everything from country music to alternative to hip-hop.

With 'One Thing At a Time' Morgan Wallen is ready to be country ... (Substream Magazine)

Logan White reviews the new Morgan Wallen album 'One Thing At a Time' and how it cements him as country's face for years to come.

In it, Wallen sings about the pain he feels seeing the girl he loves being with another man and eloquently sings with his southern drawl, “It’s a whole ‘nother level / Girl, even the devil don’t know this kind of hell.” As a happily engaged and soon-to-be married to the girl of his dreams in 6 weeks, even I start to feel for him in this song. He knows his audience and frankly he writes songs in a way that his audience feels like they know him, even better than before on One Thing At a Time. Once you do, and you sit with One Thing At a Time, you’ll see that Wallen did exactly what he wanted to do: write an album that touches every corner of what he does well and shows it off to the world. If I didn’t have the album for the week leading up to today, I’m not so sure I would have been able to get through it a few times to accurately write a review of how I feel about it. The previously teased “Keith Whitley” reflects on his own failures in a relationship and how he didn’t do enough to make it work. “In the Bible” is a mid-tempo country that highlights their country lifestyle and how if it was in the Bible, they would be saints. It’s layered over a sample of Young Thug’s “Lifestyle” and even still is nearly begging for a club remix, and rest assured that will come one way or another from local club DJ’s across the country. Similar to “Broadway Girls,” there’s not much country influence in this one other than a faint guitar twang in the background. In some ways a spiritual follow-up to Dangerous‘ “Livin’ The Dream,” “Born With a Beer In My Hand” shows that he’s learned from that story previously told. “Cowgirls” is the perfect blend of country and hip-hop that Wallen has really been experimenting with these last couple years. There’s an interesting sense of honesty here, as he ever-so-slightly touches on his drinking, calling out “I ain’t saying I swore it off for good / I’m just saying I’m doing the best I can / But what do you expect from a redneck / Hell, I was born with a beer in my hand.” It’s an intricate balance of recollecting his childhood, how alcohol has gotten him into trouble, while also singing about how drinking has given him plenty to sing about. Although the public ultimately got a whopping 9 songs ahead of time for the album came out, that still leaves them with an almost overwhelming 27 songs to dig through.
