David Lee Murphy (born January 7, 1959) is an American country music singer and songwriter. He is best known for his #1 country hits “Dust on the Bottle” and “Everything’s Gonna Be Alright”, as well as the hit songs “Party Crowd”, “Out with a Bang”.

David Lee Murphy has co-written several singles for other artists, including “Living in Fast Forward” for Kenny Chesney, “Big Green Tractor” for Jason Aldean, and “Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not” for Thompson Square, all of which he performs.

By the 2000s, Murphy had shifted his focus to songwriting. One of his first cuts in the 2000s was the title track to Aaron Tippin‘s 2000 album, People Like Us. This song was a Top 20 for Tippin in 2001. Trick Pony also entered the Country Top 20 a year later with another one of Murphy’s compositions — the title track to their 2002 album, On a Mission.
