"Your Place" is song by American country music artist Ashley Cooke. It was released on December 11, 2023 as the lead single from her second studio album Shot in the Dark. Cooke co-wrote the song with Jordan Minton and Mark Trussell and it was produced by Jimmy Robbins. Cooke was the recipient of iHeartRadio's On the Verge program. [1] The song reached #2 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart on the week of June 29, 2024, behind "I Had Some Help" by Post Malone and Morgan Wallen.
"Your Place" is a breakup song, which Cooke – in an interview with Country Now magazine, is "a stand against cheating exes everywhere" with what was described an "empowering breakup anthem" that was "riddled with confidence." Fans caught on to the song when Cooke began sharing the song through social media platforms, and later released it on her debut album, Shot In the Dark. [2]
Cooke recalled her experiences with a past boyfriend whom she had learned had cheated on her. Despite breaking off the relationship and making it clear she was moving on, he kept pestering her about maybe getting back together. Country music journalist Tom Roland noted that Cooke had the hook “It ain’t your place” logged into the “note graveyard” (as she calls it) on her phone, "and the idea lined up perfectly with the boundary-drawing abilities that she was developing." Cooke told Roland: "You basically kind of regain your power ... by saying, 'Hey, you know, you don’t get to know those things anymore. You’re the reason this thing broke. You should already know that this isn’t your place anymore.'" [3]
The song follows along those lines of Cooke's experience with her past boyfriend. Roland, in his interview with Cooke, noted the song's imagery, with furniture used both metaphorically and literally to set up the first verse of how a young woman who was cheated on is moving on, and the second verse centered on behaviors, before circling back to metaphoric furniture with the lyric "You made your bed, and I ain't sleeping in it." [3]
Here, a young woman is trying to move on from an acrimonious breakup with a now-ex-boyfriend. While no specific offense is specifically noted in the lyrics, she does place the full brunt of fault on the ex, noting, "You're the reason this thing broke."
After reminding the ex-boyfriend that she no longer lives with him and avoids the part of town where they lived together, she goes on, further reminding him that since they are no longer in a relationship, he no longer has rights to know anything about her life: How she has been doing if they meet at a party, to ask friends how she is doing, to call during the night if he is drunk to ask for another chance, and so forth. She then warns him against such things as reaching out to her family or friends, or congratulating her for her milestones, and if she gets a new boyfriend at some point that it is none of his business.
