It's the last week of August, and Garth Brooks is gearing up to take fans on "the ride" of their lives with his 14th studio album, "Time Traveler."

Released last year as part of his seven-disc boxed set "The Limited Series," sold exclusively at Bass Pro Shops, "Time Traveler" explores songs that lived—or sound like they lived—in Garth's favorite decades of country music.

Fans can stream it exclusively on Amazon Music starting September 6.

The 10-song collection includes Garth's Ronnie Dunn duet "Rodeo Man," his Kelly Clarkson collaboration "The Ship and the Bottle," his reimagined version of David Allan Coe's "The Ride," and more.

Coe released "The Ride" in 1983 – one of Garth's favorite tracks on "Time Traveler."

One of the song's writers, Gary Gentry, told NSAI's Bart Herbison that "The Ride," a lyric about an aspiring musician hitchhiking to Nashville and receiving a ride from Hank Williams' ghost, is somewhat reality-based. He told Herbison he wrote his part of the song at 4 a.m. and saw the ghost of Williams sitting shirtless on his couch.

Garth was thrilled when they let him write the middle verse for his album.

"For as long as I can remember, I always wanted to know what happened between when he picked him up and dropped him off," Garth said. "But it's not in the song. So, I got to write the middle verse, and it's so good. My favorite line is, 'Every story smelled like whiskey, and every word is gospel truth.' To me, that defines Hank Williams' music."
