Contents 1 Content 2 Music video 3 Critical reception 4 Chart performance 5 Charts 5.1 Year - end charts 6 References Content The duo wrote the song with Lee Thomas Miller in mid-2015. The song is about `` a guy who doggedly, humorously refuses to own up to his own actions '', as reflected in the title line. Miller came up with the opening lines about `` a chain of events leading to an affair '' while using a phone app that simulates drum patterns to create a drum pattern similar to the one used in `` ( I Ca n't Get No ) Satisfaction ''. Billboard compared the `` series of occurrences that create a cheatin ' scenario '' to `` Third Rock from the Sun '' by Joe Diffie. The recording session featured Jay Joyce as producer, Jason Hall as engineer, along with John Osborne on lead guitar, Adam Box on drums, and Pete Sternberg on bass. John Osborne told Billboard that `` We 've all been there where we 're drunk and stubborn, and we 're not willing to admit it. That 's really what the song 's about. Even the singer knows that it 's his fault. '' Lead singer T.J. Osborne sings the song in a primarily `` darker frequency ''. Music video The official music video was released May 2, 2017 and directed by Wes Edwards and Ryan Silver. The film depicts the brothers as owners of a pawn shop robbed by men wearing rubber masks of U.S. presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump, in an homage to the `` Ex-Presidents '' of the 1991 action crime thriller Point Break and as an implicit criticism of the American political system. The video uses the circumstances of the criminals ' escape to make a series of visual gags about the presidents whose masks they wear : `` Clinton '' ogles a passing woman, `` Bush '' leaves his bag on the roof of his getaway vehicle and loses all of his money, `` Obama '' is shot at by a disgruntled gunowner, and `` Trump '' upstages an African - American church service, attempts to pilfer the offering dish, and gets caught up in an angry protest. The thieves all escape to freedom by scaling a wall ( `` Clinton '' with the help of someone wearing a Hillary Clinton mask ), with `` Trump '' left behind and cornered by the police. Critical reception Billy Dukes of Taste of Country describes the song as a `` guitar - drenched, unapologetic jam that 's not likely to please the pop - country crowd ''. while Jason Scott of AXS said that the duo `` hit on all cylinders with their new single ''. Angela Stefano of The Boot states that the tune `` features a steady drum beat and guitar flourishes throughout its verses, which find the Osbornes placing blame for the previous night 's series of events on everyone ( and everything ) but themselves ''.
