Ella Langley has seemingly taken over country music with her catchy tune, “You Look Like You Love Me,” which features Riley Green.

Langley was a recent guest on the God’s Country podcast, where she got to talking about her song and all of the random pickup lines she has heard from men over the years.

Langley says there’s one man in country music who spouts the best pickup lines ever.

“The best pickup lines I’ve ever heard is from Riley’s dad. He gives the best pickup lines I’ve ever heard in my life,” she reveals.

The podcast hosts, Dan and Reid Isbell, agreed and also asked Langley, “He, like, makes them up, right?”

Langley confirmed, saying, “Oh yeah, he makes them up, he’s like off the cuff and it’s incredible. It is a work of art, honestly.”

Green has posted about his pops before, sharing a lot of shirtless pictures of him. Apparently, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree on that one, as Green is now an underwear model and often appears shirtless.

People have already run through every rumor in the rumor mill about Langley possibly dating Green. The two have said multiple times that they are just friends who made some music together.

However, it turns out that Riley is not the only Green out there making the ladies giggle.

Here Are the Lyrics to Ella Langley and Riley Green, ‘You Look Like You Love Me’

Ella Langley and Riley Green’s “You Look Like You Love Me” sounds like a country throwback, but the lyrics recall a different era of songwriting, as well.

The boozy, piano-led, love (for a night) song showcases the warmth of Langley’s vocals at the chorus and relies heavy on their supernatural chemistry. What will make this song a hit, however, is the hook.

Listen once and try not to walk around the house singing “Excuuuse me” all day long.

We dare you.

Once in awhile a spoken-word ballad will surface on country radio, but they’re almost always led by men. Langley takes charge in more ways than one throughout “You Look Like You Love Me.” Her message is to go after what you want, consequences be damned.

Fifty years ago, it wasn’t unheard of for a second verse to replicate the first. Freddy Fender does it during “Before the Next Tear Drop Falls.” Merle Haggard’s “That’s the Way Love Goes” (written by Lefty Frizzell) doesn’t even bother with informing us further.

Green’s second verse corroborates Langley’s telling of the story, essentially echoing her yearning impulses. It’s a twist-free country song, which in 2024 is a twist in its own kind of way.

Ella Langley, Riley Green “You Look Like You Love Me” Lyrics:

Ella Langley:

I was all but 22 / I think at the time / I’d been out on the road / Lonely at night / And it’d been a while / So it was on my mind.

Well, I saw him walk in / With his cowboy hat / And I thought to myself / I could use some of that / His boots like glass on a sawdust floor / Had moves like nothin’ I’d ever seen before.

So I walked right up / And I pulled him to the side / I handed him a beer and looked him right in the eye / And I said Baby, I think you’re gonna wanna hear this / Then I told him …

Chorus:

Excuse me / You look like you love me / You look like you want me / To want you to come on home / And baby, I don’t blame you / For lookin’ me up and down across this room / I’m drunk and I’m ready to leave / And you look like you love me.

Riley Green:

Well, I was down at the local beer joint with a few of the guys / When this cute little country girl caught my eye / And boy, let me tell you / She was the prettiest thing I’d ever seen in a pair of boots / Well, she walked right up to me, handed me a beer / Gave me a look like, let’s get outta here / And that’s when I realized that she was every cowboy’s dream come true / She told me this right here, she said …

Repeat Chorus

Alright, now.

So if you ever see a man in a cowboy hat / And you think to yourself / I could use some of that / Don’t waste your time / Just give ’em this here line / Goes a little like this.

Repeat Chorus
