David Lee Murphy (born January 7, 1959) is an American country music artist. Signed to MCA Nashville Records in 1994, Murphy made his first appearance on the Billboard country charts that year with "Just Once", a song from the soundtrack to the 1994 film 8 Seconds. A year later, Murphy's debut album Out with a Bang was released; overall, it produced four chart singles. His follow-up albums were, Gettin' Out the Good Stuff (1996) and We Can't All Be Angels (1997). A fourth album, Tryin' to Get There, was released in 2004 on Koch Records' country division Audium Records, with the Top 5 single "Loco".

Murphy's four albums produced a total of thirteen singles on the country charts, including the Number One hit "Dust on the Bottle" from 1995 and four more Top Ten hits.

Although he has not recorded since 2004, Murphy has co-written several singles for other artists, including the hits "Living in Fast Forward" for Kenny Chesney, "Anywhere With You" for Jake Owen, "Big Green Tractor" for Jason Aldean and "Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not" for Thompson Square. Murphy has sold over 500,000 records according to the RIAA.

In April 2015 Kenny Chesney announced that he is teaming up with Murphy for a new collaborative album called No Zip Code. A release date has not yet been set.

Dust on the Bottle" is a song written and recorded by American country music artist David Lee Murphy. It was released in August 1995 as the fourth single from the album Out with a Bang. The song hit number one on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks in late 1995  and is Murphy's only number one hit. The song also hit number 9 on the Canadian Country charts.

In an interview with The Boot, Murphy said that he was playing guitar at his kitchen table in the morning and the song "came out of nowhere." Murphy goes on to say that he wrote the song in 15 minutes.

The song is about an old man named Creole Williams. The narrator asks him for advice on impressing his lover, and Williams gives him a bottle of homemade wine, then tells him "There might be a little dust on the bottle / But it's one of those things that gets sweeter with time".
