Backseat Driver Video (MV)




"Backseat Driver" is a song by American country music singer Kane Brown, released on October 11, 2024, as the third single from his fourth studio album, The High Road (2025). It was written by Jacob Davis and Jordan Walker of Walker McGuire and produced by Dann Huff.

Kane Brown teased the song on Father's Day in 2024 and in early October 2024 on social media. In the latter preview, he shared a video featuring snippets of his daughters, as well as that of himself recording the song.

The song centers around Brown cherishing his fatherhood. It depicts him driving around with his little daughter in the backseat. While Brown pays no special attention to the ordinary things in life, his daughter shows great curiosity and asks questions about them.

In an interview with Taste of Country Nights, Brown revealed his wife was annoyed at the starting lyrics:
("7:30 in the morning in a Mickey D's drive-thru / Two muffins, one coffee and a little bitty orange juice")
Explaining "I mean, I'm up at 7 or 7:30, but not for Mickey D's. We make our own breakfast. My wife's so organic."

Brown said the line was relevant to him when he was in high school. The composer of the song allowed Brown to change any lyrics, but he decided to leave the song exactly as it was.

Kane Brown - Backseat Driver Lyrics
Official




7:30 in the morning in a Mickey D's drive thru
Two muffins, one coffee and a little bitty orange juice
I saw a man with a sign on the corner
I rolled my window down, handed him a dollar
That's when I heard her ask
"Hey, Daddy, who was that?"
And before I could answer back
She said

"Daddy, look, there's a plane in the sky
Are we there yet? Did you just see that dog run by?
Do squirrels have houses in the trees?
Why'd God put stingers on honeybees?"
It's crazy all the things she sees on the side of the road
Out of that window beside her
I wish I could be more like her
My little dangling feet, pretty in pink, backseat driver

Later on that day, on the highway back home
I saw a lady in a black Mercedes yelling at her phone
She flew by me with her finger in the air
And I had to act like I didn't care
And that's when I heard her ask
"Daddy, why was she so mad?"
Before I could answer back
She said

"Daddy, can you please turn up the radio?
Hey, what are you pushing with your feet that makes us go?
Do squirrels have houses in the trees?
Why'd God put stingers on honeybees?"
It's crazy all the things she sees on the side of the road
Out of that window beside her
I wish I could be more like her
My little dangling feet, pretty in pink, backseat driver

One day, I'll look back and I'll miss when
My whole world wasn't over that dash
It was back there buckled in

Saying, "Daddy, look, there's a plane in the sky
Are we there yet? Did you just see that dog run by?
Do squirrels have houses in the trees?
Why would God put a stinger on a honeybee?"
It's crazy all the things she sees on the side of the road
Out of that window beside her
I wish I could be more like her
My little dangling feet, pretty in pink, backseat driver
Hmm, my backseat driver

7:30 in the morning in a Mickey D's drive thru
Two muffins, one coffee and a little bitty orange juice
