Noah Thompson is giving fans a taste of what’s to come on his forthcoming, yet-to-be-announced debut album with a teaser of a brand-new song.
The season 20 winner of American Idol took to social media on December 20, 2022, to share an unreleased tune called “She Gets It From Me.”
“I love this freakin song, I hope y’all do too!!” Thompson captioned the clip.
The video begins as Thompson tells his followers, “You guys have been asking for some new music and I just got this master back.”
In the clip, the 20-year-old Kentucky native is seen sitting in his car singing the below lyrics:
“Got that temper from her daddy / Her eyes from her momma / That tattoo on spring break down in Daytona / Gotta curve in her words / From growing up in Texas / Safe in her soul from that cross on her necklace / ohhhh if we’re going down that checklist / yeah, what I love best is / that stay out two lane ain’t a taste for good whiskey / laugh when it hurts and bad words when she’s tipsy / the hands she can hold in her life full of memories / Cause every wish, every kiss yeah she gets it from me / Day or night, rain or shine / yeah, she gets it from me.”
“Make You Rich” finds Thompson being thankful for all that he has in life while remembering that no matter how wealthy you become, it’s always important to remain humble and value life’s most simple things.
“I’m from a small town in Eastern Kentucky and didn’t grow up with much,” Thompson previously shared of the track. “I’ve learned to value my friends and family so much more than the materialistic things we can have in life. I joke that I’m just a simple guy. I’ve also learned, even when life is tough, the more you give, and the more you love, the richer you are, and that is the whole meaning behind ‘Make You Rich.’”
In addition to sharing the new song, Thompson also released a music video to accompany the track, which features him and his 2-year-old son, Walker.
Thompson filmed the music video for the tune in his hometown of Louisa, Kentucky. The clip finds Thompson wandering the streets where he grew up and seeing his name emblazoned on buildings throughout the small town. As the clip concludes, He and his son are seen walking through a field hand in hand sharing some quality time together as Thompson sings the tune.
