There’s no arguing that Tyler Childers is one of the best storytellers in country music.

Storytelling in songwriting doesn’t always translate well to telling stories in real life, but damn if Tyler wasn’t blessed with a gift for both. In this video, Tyler gets into the hilarious story behind his unreleased song “Going Home.”

It involves a 2am trip to Waffle House, a Toyota Prius in an empty parking lot, and a night he’ll never forget.

Good stuff.

Here’s the full song.
