Luke Bryan Will Try to Score His 21st No. 1 Hit With New Single, “Sunrise, Sunburn, Sunset” [Listen]

Now that the weather is heating up, Luke Bryan will try to score the 21st No. 1 hit of his career with the release of his new single, “Sunrise, Sunburn, Sunset.”

Written by Zach Crowell, Ryan Hurd and Chase McGill, “Sunrise, Sunburn, Sunset” is featured on Luke’s 2017 studio album, What Makes You Country, which has already spawned two No. 1 singles, “Light It Up” and “Most People Are Good.”

“Most People Are Good” reached the top of the Billboard Country Airplay chart in March, extending Luke’s streak of consecutive No. 1 singles to 12.

Luke will kick off the second leg of his What Makes You Country Tour on May 31, including more than a dozen dates at stadiums and ballparks.

Check out “Sunrise, Sunburn, Sunset” below, as well as the lyrics.

“Sunrise, Sunburn, Sunset”

Your daddy had a lake house
He had me paint it that summer sophomore year
Said I could stay for free, a couple buddies, a couple weeks
You rolled in in a little red Honda and headed straight for the pier
Tank-top and cut-off jeans, little PacSun underneath
Who knew it was ‘bout to be

Chorus:
Sunrise, sunburn, sunset, repeat
Moonlight, all night, crashin’ into me
Nothin’ll ever be easy as you and me
Tangled up and nowhere to be
Just sunrise, sunburn, sunset, repeat

Sunrise, sunburn, sunset, repeat
I turned those shutters the color of your eyes ‘til the day turned into night
And took turns with a jar, turned that boat dock into a bar
And then we passed the guitar around the fire to each other
And watched all of our friends pair off with one another
We fell like the stars we were under
And everybody knew that that was our summer

Repeat Chorus

Whoa, we set July on fire
Whoa, yeah girl, you and I were
Sunrise, sunburn, sunset, repeat

Repeat Chorus

Sunrise, sunburn, sunset, repeat

Whoa, we set July on fire
Whoa, yeah girl, you and I were
Sunrise, sunburn, sunset, repeat
Sunrise, sunburn, sunset, repeat
