"Them Boys" is a song co-written and recorded by American country rock artist Brantley Gilbert. It was released in January 2011 as the second single from his second studio album Halfway to Heaven. Gilbert wrote the song with Colt Ford and Mike Dekle.

The song is a country rock song about observing a younger generation not understanding life. Towards the end, the narrator realizes his grandparents would've also said the same thing.

In her review of the album, Sarah Wyland of CountryMusicOnline.net gave the song a positive review, praising the lyrics and writing that "“Them Boys” is another co-write with Dekle and Ford about 'those boys' that ride up and down Main Street with their music turned up and not a care in the world. It is a more mainstream sounding track that ends with 'them boys' reminiscing about days gone by while sitting around the wood stove in the hardware store. The album is dedicated to Brantley's grandfather and it's worth wondering if “Them Boys” is, at least in some way, about him."
