"There Was This Girl" is the debut single by American country music singer Riley Green.
Green wrote the song with Erik Dylan, and Dann Huff served as producer.
The trick Green and his co-writers pull is using successive choruses to advance his narrative without sacrificing the country-rocker's singalong quality.
He swaps only a word or phrase each time, slowly turning what starts as an adolescent adventure reminiscent of Chris Cagle's 'Chicks Dig It' into a grown man's memory.
"[1] Green said that the song's music video (directed by Peter Zavadil) was shot by fans of his, while he performed a concert in a bar in his home state of Alabama.
