Ain't a Bad Life": Thomas Rhett and Jordan Davis Collaborate on a Feel-Good Anthem
Thomas Rhett and Jordan Davis collaborated on the new single "Ain't a Bad Life," which was born out of a songwriting retreat in 2022. The song explores themes of contentment, spirituality, and family, drawing inspiration from Rhett's personal experiences and a James Taylor-esque chord progression. Producer Mark Trussell added a classic rock vibe to the track, giving it a timeless feel. Originally planned as a solo release, Rhett decided to team up with Davis after bonding during a hunting trip. The song is featured on the deluxe edition of Thomas' 2024 album, About a Woman, and was released in September 2025. "Ain't a Bad Life" is a feel-good anthem that follows Rhett's previous hit, "After All the Bars Are Closed," and is currently climbing the charts, sitting at No. 28 on Billboard's Country Airplay chart. Rhett describes the song as a refreshing change of pace and looks forward to what the future holds.
