Luke Combs Performs Unreleased Track “Pushin’ Up Daisies” In Australia

Drop it, Luke, we are begging. Luke Combs is rolling out the unreleased songs during his tour Down Under. The North Carolina native kicked off 2025 with two massive shows in New Zealand and has now moved into shows in Australia, taking his music to multiple cities on the continent. https://www.instagram.com/p/DAEkZgmxsXd/?utm_source=ig_embed&ig_rid=38fba575-cca7-48c9-9665-2a10120022dd During his New Zealand shows, Combs debuted a brand new song, seemingly titled “Ain’t No Cowboy.” Hearing his performance of the heartbreak ballad left viewers wanting more, as they instantly fell in love with the tune. The lyrics highlight a man whose relationship has ended. He feels he didn't step up when he needed to fight for the relationship. The man feels like he “Ain’t No Cowboy” for stepping up, changing his ways, and being the man she needs. “Ain’t no cowboy, but I wish I was We would’ve rode off together In the setting sun Instead of watching her  Ride right out of my mind If I could have roped her heart back I could have been what she needed when She saddled up, and she kicked up a pile a dust Ain’t no cowboy But now I wish I was” @ogbunningssnag #lukecombs #jordandavis #lukecombstour #2025 #mitchelletenpenny ♬ original sound - OGBunningsSnag However, that is not the only unreleased track fans in the southern hemisphere are getting from him. During his show in Brisbane, Australia, Combs performed another track from the vault, "Pushin’ Up Daisies." Longtime fans of Luke Combs know this is not a new track from him as he first teased it quite a while ago. Last year, Combs shared a snippet of the song during a Country Music Hall of Fame event highlighting his exhibit, The Man I Am. "I wrote this song with Josh Phillips and Randy Montana sometime last year. It’s been stuck in my head for some time now. Might be good, might be bad. I don’t know, but I like it. It’s called 'Pushin’ Up Daisies.'" "Might be bad," come on now, Luke, you know dang well that it's hard for you to write a bad tune. "Pushin' Up Daisies" The song carries a deep meaning as he sings about walking away from a life-threatening car accident. The narrator reflects on how lucky he is to survive such a horrific crash and how he gets to grow old with his wife and be with his kids instead of "Pushin' Up Daisies." "That Trooper said, 'I don't know how you walked away Boy, you're lucky, this sure could have gone the other way.' Now, oooooh, all the life I would've missed out on Kids screaming, 'Daddy's back home' And growing old with their mom Oooooh, I don't miss my wild and crazy Out here picking wildflowers for my baby Instead of pushin' up daisies." The last two lines of the chorus perfectly tie in the meaning of the phrase "Pushin' Up Daises," as it means to "be dead and buried," comparing it to the polar opposite activity of picking wildflowers with his song. https://www.instagram.com/lukecombs/reel/DFTZ4rdxaU9/ Fans quickly filled up the comments, noting how moving the single is, and they hope he gifts it to fans sooner rather than later. Given that he has shared bits and pieces of "Pushin' Up Daisies" before and the high-quality video of the track from the tour shared to social media, one would think he's teasing it for release. But Combs is an artist who constantly shares his unreleased work with fans, so this might be the one he's digging right now, with no release date on the horizon. Given that this is the second unreleased song Combs has performed on this tour, I hope that means a new album is coming soon.
