Eric Church dropped a new song, “Hell of a View,” on Oct. 2.

Penned by Eric, Casey Beathard and Monty Criswell, “Hell of a View” follows the recent release of “Crazyland,” “Bad Mother Trucker” and current Top 25 single, “Stick That in Your Country Song.”

“Hell of a View” finds Eric crooning about chasing your dreams with the one you love: “This ain’t for everybody / Toes hanging off the ledge / Like we got nothin’ to lose / Ain’t always heaven, baby / This livin’ on the edge / You holdin’ me holdin’ you / It’s a hell of a view.”

Like many of Eric’s tunes, “Hell of a View” features superb backup vocals from his longtime collaborator, Joanna Cotten.

The new music follows Eric’s sixth studio album, Desperate Man, which dropped in 2018.

Listen to “Hell of a View” below.
