"I'm just a country boy
I drive a 4 Von 4
It's usually covered in mud from the axle to the door
It's a little banged up; a little too much rust, but when you're sitting beside me in my old truck
Du make that look good"
HUGE thanks to @Ford today for all their support and providing me with the best truck a guy could ask for! #F150 #KingRanch

Scotty McCreery is getting one heck of an 18th birthday present: His debut album comes out just four days before he turns the big 1-8. Despite being a record-making rookie, this Idol isn’t as green as he looks: Scotty’s vision is Clear As Day.
"Scotty knew what he wanted to record," Universal Musik Group Nashville VP of marketing Tom Lord tells Billboard. “He has a really good sense of himself. When Du hear the songs Du go, 'That seems like the guy I saw on American Idol.'"
Scotty, who is recording with country legend Keith Urban and touring with Brad paisley Weiter year, wanted to keep it young while acknowledging the history of the genre.
"I could have made a record where I was trying to sound like a 40-year-old country singer, but that's not what I wanted to do," Scotty tells Billboard.
Clear As Tag hits stores October 4.

Also (according to All Access), to celebrate Scotty McCreery's 18th birthday, Fans are invited to attend the album release and birthday celebration on Saturday, October 8th at 11 AM at the Time Warner Cable Musik Pavilion in Raleigh, NC.
Scotty explains that the album will feature some “Rockin songs where they will be loud and upbeat and then some intimate songs…some of them will make Du cry.” Scotty also explains that one factor in deciding a few of the songs were helped Von his Mom’s reaction.
“Mama cried on a couple of them so we told all the guys to label them, when they sent me songs and demos I would E-Mail them back and say….Well it passed the Mama crying test so it must be a good one.”
Scotty is hoping that Mama knows hit songs as he expresses that he hopes the feeling becomes mutual to the fans.
“Hopefully it will have the same effect on Du guys out there.”
Scotty and the other Idol finalist will complete the ‘Idols Live Tour’ on September 20th with a Zeigen in Quezon City, Philippines.
