Open The Gate lyrics:
I heard you died out in Cheyenne
With my mother's ring on your hand
A note in your pocket said "I'll love you till I die"
I can hear the bulls are coming to claim that they've been hunting
The son of the cowboy came to claim his daddy's right
And my baby she's been crying at the thought of me dying
She knows there's no stopping a man and his foolish pride
So open the gates
I'm here to prove
I'm better than my father was
And where he came from, too
Open the gates
I'm here to ride
To hell I'll go
With daddy by my side
And I ain't never feared nothing
That was four-legged and bucking
Throw me on a hurricane
And I'll ride it to the coast
You'll never know that your son
Came to do what you should've done
On a summer day a long time ago
Top a bull named To Hell I Go
So open the gates
I'm here to prove
I'm better than my father was
And where he came from too
Open the gates
I'm here to ride
To hell I'll go
With daddy by my side
Well, I died out in Cheyenne
With my baby there crying
And a belly that's been growing by the day
And I know that my son
Will do what his father should've done
A long, long time ago
On a bull named To Hell I Go
So open the gates
He’s here to prove
He’s better than his father was
And where he came from too
Open the gates
He’s here to ride
To Hell I Go’s calf
With daddy by his side

Zach Bryan official bio:
Oklahoma born and bred Zach Bryan has been making an impact on the underground country music scene for the past few years even while he was still actively serving in the US Navy. He released a pair of independently recorded and released albums, DeAnn (2019) and Elisabeth (2020) that provided the spark that would ignite his arrival. New songs and videos would appear via socials and RU-vid all fueled by a voracious word-of-mouth community that would ascend into a dramatic trajectory that continuously draws millions of new country and rock fans into his orbit week after week.
His 2019 breakthrough single “Heading South” garnered 90 million global Spotify streams and over 15 million RU-vid views and soon the Billboard Hot Country Songs and Hot Rock Songs began to chart his moves.
Without the aid of extensive touring or commercial radio, his impact upon the new Americana culture skyrocketed purely on the strength of his deeply personal, relatable songs gaining a seemingly unstoppable momentum that resonates with music fans around the world. Upon his release from service, he traveled from base directly to the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. Soon after, shows in New York City and Nashville - at prestigious The Ryman Auditorium, no less, sold out in minutes without fanfare.
To date, Bryan has surpassed 1 billion combined global streams with 12 million monthly Spotify listeners. All unprecedented terrain for a new artist completely free from any music industry influence or outside assistance.
His recent blistering set at his Stagecoach Festival debut was the most talked about event of the weekend and left an indelible impression that will challenge perceptions of modern country music. To date, every show of his first extensive US tour has found him connecting with fans in a Springsteen-esqe communal experience thanks to music and attitude that is simple, undiluted, genuine, and captivating.
Zach Bryan is a true artist who believes in letting the music do the talking as the songs themselves take centerstage. He embodies the Outlaw attitude of legends like Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson while drawing in young alternative fans and new country purists alike. The bond he shares with his audience is something special to witness live. He tells his story through the songs, delivering them with raw emotion and pure passion, generating a mutual respect in an authentic way very few can and do.
