"Country radio has given me an amazing career already," said McGraw.  "I'm 20 years into it, so to be having my highest chart debut ever is such a cool thing.   I can't thank everyone in radio enough for the support they've shown me over the years and especially now as I'm starting a new chapter with a new label.   It means more to me than ever…the best is really yet to come!" 

“Truck Yeah” was written by Chris Lucas, Preston Brust, Danny Myrick and Chris Janson and produced by Byron Gallimore and McGraw.
