A second album, 2009's Easy Does It, has accounted for three more singles: "Don't Think I Can't Love You", "Eight Second Ride", and "Tell Me". In September 2011, Owen achieved his first number one on the country charts with the title track to his third album, Barefoot Blue Jean Night.

Joshua "Jake" Owen and his fraternal twin brother Jarrod were born in Vero Beach, Florida on August 28, 1981. The brothers regularly participated in a variety of sports. Jake eventually took up golf, and began pursuing a career as a professional golfer, winning his first tournament at fifteen. After graduating from Vero Beach High School, they attended Florida State University. A wakeboarding accident which resulted in reconstructive surgery left Jake unable to continue playing the sport.

If you ever ate a peach
From down in Georgia
Or just like me
Your a die-hard Earnhardt fan
An if you ever had a sip
Of ol Jack Daniels
Or raised your glass
To sweet home alabam
Then you can Thank Dixie
You can Thank Dixie for that
If you ever got a wiff
Of orange blossoms in the wind
When they start to bloomin in the spring
An if you like your catfish fried
With butter grits there on the side
And swear that boy from memphis
Hes still the king
Then you can Thank Dixie
You can Thank Dixie for that
And if you ever held
One of them pretty lil southern belles
Then you know what were talkin bout yall
an if you like the way we say
yes sir an yes mam
an the way we sing our songs with a southern drawl
Then you can Thank Dixie
You can Thank Dixie for that
You can Thank Dixie
