Houser will "Rub a Little Dirt On It"
The song, an anthem of resilience and finding solace in the simple pleasures of life, is on Houser's album "Note To Self. "
"I thought Riley's voice would be perfect for 'Rub A Little Dirt On It,'" said Houser. "He has a down-to-earth quality that really matches the spirit of this song."
Written by Houser with Jeff Hyde and Ryann Tyndell, "Rub A Little Dirt On It" reflects on the wisdom and strength gained from overcoming challenges and the healing power of the outdoors. Lyrics include:
Nothing knocks the cobwebs off your soul
Like some spiderwire on a fishing pole
It'll take your breath, taking in a sunset
From a flat bottom boat
That heavy load laying on your chest
Got your mind all twisted up in a mess
When life scatters all your stuff
Sometimes to clean it up
You gotta rub a little dirt on it
Shake the dust right outta your mind
Let a cool breeze work on it
Ya feel the healing comin' right on time
Crack a six pack open
Somewhere under an open sky
When life gets a little hurt on it
Get in the middle of nowhere
And rub a little dirt on it
Today's release follows Houser's latest single "Country Back."
Houser and Justin Moore will embark on their co-headlining Country Round Here Tonight Tour on Sept. 5 in Charlotte, N.C. with 12 shows across the south, northeast and Midwest.

CD reviews
Listening to the way Riley Green strings together a collection of heartfelt country songs may make you wish more artists did it this way. In fact, I'm sure Hank done it this way. If you think lyrics like the ones to "Numbers On The Cars," are exceptions, "Different 'Round Here" is mostly more of the same good thing.
With the song "Different 'Round Here," Green sings a Southern pride song, but it's one that goes much deeper than a regional affection for sweet tea. ...
Riley Green's "Get That Man A Beer" EP includes a strong quartet of modern country songs. None better than "Numbers On The Cars," though. It's the perfectly appropriate song to pull out whenever arguing the case for what real country music does best. Chronicling the trials and tribulations of an Alzheimer's-afflicted father, it's difficult to imagine any other genre bettering this one. Its various lyrical scenarios spotlight the confusing inconsistencies ...
