Throughout the song, the artist answers specific questions as to what he would be doing if he wasn\u2019t a country music artist. The response within the lyrics can fit some masculine stereotypes but no mention of a female means to feminine stereotypes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Link to song lyrics: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azlyrics.com\/lyrics\/lukecombs\/dointhis.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">https:\/\/www.azlyrics.com\/lyrics\/lukecombs\/dointhis.html<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Masculine Stereotypes<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cCup of brown liquor, couple buddies in a band\u201d<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A generic country boy stereotype usually goes hand in hand with drinking whiskey and hanging out with some friends while singing or playing the guitar. These lyrics fit that stereotype.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI&#8217;d be drivin&#8217; my first car, an old worn-out Dodge, Tryin&#8217; to make rent with a dead-end job\u201d<\/span>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another basic country song stereotype is that male artists talk about driving an old truck, which this lyric reinforces. Most country songs, just like this one, often talk about how they make a living and are \u201cblue-collared boys\u201d which can be seen in this song as well.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Throughout these song lyrics essentially telling where artist Luke Combs came from, there are definitely some examples of stereotypes. From driving a hand-me-down truck, drinking whiskey, and hanging out with buddies this song can be seen as a stereotypical country song. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The song \u201cDoin\u2019 This\u201d by Luke Combs is a great song that sends a deep message to listeners.
