Dakota Hurley's debut single Riding Out smashed onto streaming platforms on January 30th, 2018. This song is about what a lot of great songs are--a girl who got away. Dakota is known for putting his own spin on "country music" and that's evident here. Where most "country artists" would belly-ache and write a sad song about love gone bad, Dakota decided to take a different approach... The song is a banger of a debut, coming in with huge drums and heavy guitars, and a heart-felt batch of lyrics which expose true feelings.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been running around all night and day
Wondering what it is that I have to say
To keep you around. Girl, there ain't a day
I don't wish you were here
Do you feel the same?
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know what it is you feel
But I've decided that it's no big deal
[Chorus]
I'm riding out, girl, I'm leaving you
And honey you ain't on my mind
I'm riding out, girl, I won't miss you
And you wasting, you wasting all my time
[Verse 2]
I was running down the road and you slipped in my mind
I thought about how you kept me biting your line
But girl you know you can't play me no more
Cause I'm already gone, baby, that's for sure
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm gone to do better things
And for your sake I hope you change
[Chorus]
I'm riding out, girl, I'm leaving you
And honey you ain't on my mind
I'm riding out, girl, I won't miss you
And you wasting, you wasting all my time
[Solo]
[Chorus]
I'm riding out, girl, I'm leaving you
And honey you ain't on my mind
I'm riding out, girl, I won't miss you
And you wasting...
(Yeah) I'm riding out, girl, I'm leaving you
And honey you ain't on my mind
I'm riding out, girl, I won't miss you
And you wasting, you wasting all my time
