Luke Bryan’s Heartwarming Hospital Visit Gives Kids A Reason To Smile

Ryan Seacrest Foundation

Country music artists have been known to give back to their community.  Luke Bryan didn’t miss an opportunity to do just that when he was in his home state of Georgia. 

He stopped by Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta to meet his biggest, yet maybe his smallest, fans! He took time out of his busy tour schedule to sign autographs, take pictures, and interact with all the kids. He also did a radio interview thanks to Ryan Seacrest Foundation’s Seacrest Studios at the hospital.

He spent almost 2 hours visiting with everyone, and seemed to love every minute of it. Luke gracefully answered each and every question that was thrown his way including “What’s your favorite food?” and “What’s your favorite song of yours?” They learned that his favorite foods are pizza and cheeseburgers, and his favorite song of his is “Country Girl Shake It For Me“.

Here are a few photos of Luke with some of the kids:

You can tell just how much this day meant to a lot to not only the young patients, and Luke, but also to the kids’ parents. Below is an Instagram post from one of the moms.

When the kids wanted to do a sing-a-long with Luke, he obliged. Together, they all sang his hit “Play It Again” and it is just precious hearing all the kids voices singing with Luke!  

What an amazing day for everyone! Watch the heartwarming video below!

Lyrics

She was sittin’ all alone over on the tailgate
Tan legs swingin’ by a Georgia plate
I was lookin’ for her boyfriend
Thinkin’, no way she ain’t got one
Soon as I sat down I was fallin’ in love
Tryin’ to pour a little sugar in her Dixie cup
Talkin’ over the speakers in the back of that truck
She jumped up and cut me off

She was like, oh my God, this is my song
I’ve been listenin’ to the radio all night long
Sittin’ ’round waitin’ for it to come on and here it is
She was like, come here boy, I wanna dance
‘Fore I said a word, she was takin’ my hand
Spinnin’ me around ’til it faded out
And she gave me a kiss
And she said, play it again, play it again, play it again
And I said, play it again, play it again, play it again

I’d have gave that DJ my last dime
If he would have played it just one more time
But a little while later
We were sittin’ in the drive in my truck
Before I walked her to the door
I was scannin’ like a fool AM, FM, XM too
But I stopped real quick when I heard that groove
Man, you should have seen her light up

She was like, oh my God, this is my song
We’ve been listenin’ to the radio all night long
I can’t believe it came back on, but here it is
She was like, come here boy, I wanna dance
‘Fore I said a word, she was takin’ my hand
Spinnin’ in the headlights she gave me a goodnight kiss
And I said, play it again, play it again, play it again
And she said, play it again, play it again, play it again

The next Friday night we were sittin’ out under the stars
You should have seen her smile when I brought out my guitar

She was like, oh my God, this is my song
I’ve been listenin’ to the radio all night long
Sittin’ ’round waitin’ for it to come on and here it is
She was like, come here boy, I wanna dance
‘Fore I said a word, she was takin’ my hand
Spinnin’ in the headlights
She gave me a goodnight kiss
And she said, play it again, play it again, play it again
And I said, play it again, play it again, play it again

Yeah, play it again, play it again, play it again
Somebody, play it again, play it again, play it again
