Rising superstar Parker McCollum took some time this weekend to drop a short cover of Chris Stapleton‘s “Starting Over,” saying Chris is “the best in the biz right now, no question.”

Parker is coming off his first #1 at country radio and holding true to his Texas country roots saying “No beer songs or dirt roads or trucks or nothin. Just honest songwriting.”

Amen to that.

Here’s his cover of “Starting Over.”

Lyrics for “Starting Over”

Well the road rolls out like a welcome mat
To a better place than the one we’re at
And I ain’t got no kinda plan
But I’ve had all of this town I can stand
And I got friends out on the coast
We can jump in the water and see what floats
We’ve been savin’ for a rainy day
Let’s beat the storm and be on our way

And it don’t matter to me
Wherever we are is where I wanna be
And Honey, for once in our life
Let’s take our chances and roll the dice
I can be your lucky penny, you can be my four-leaf clover
Startin’ over

This might not be an easy time
There’s rivers to cross and hills to climb
Some days we might fall apart
And some nights might feel cold and dark
But nobody wins afraid of losin’
And the hard roads are the ones worth choosin’
Someday we’ll look back and smile
And know it was worth every mile

And it don’t matter to me
Wherever we are is where I wanna be
And Honey, for once in our life
Let’s take our chances and roll the dice
I can be your lucky penny, you can be my four-leaf clover
Startin’ over
Startin’ over

It don’t matter to me
Wherever we are is where I wanna be
And Honey, for once in our life
Let’s take our chances and roll the dice
I can be your lucky penny, you can be my four-leaf clover
Startin’ over
Startin’ over
Oooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
