Dan + Shay's "Tequila" is proving to be a big hit for the country music duo and made the climb to #1 on the Country Music Airplay chart.

Dan and Shay Tequila Lyrics and song released in 2018 as a track on their self titled album.  Country music duo Dan + Shay‘s “Tequila” is burning up the country radio charts.  The song initially reached the Top 15 as the accompanying music videos have surpassed 26 million views combined. The intoxicating single has been featured on over 20 international playlists including Spotify’s US Top 50, Today’s Top Hits and Hot Country. It has accumulated over 73 million on-demand streams since its release, making it one of the Top 10 most streamed country songs of 2018.  Now their new self-titled album and single “Tequila” is at No. 1 on the Country Music airplay chart.  The duo celebrates another week atop the country singles as “Tequila” becomes their fourth consecutive No. 1 and first multi-week No. 1 song.   Tequila is now the fifth most-streamed country song of the year with over 150 million on-demand streams.

“At first, when you hear that title, you think like party song, uptempo, feel good, like, ‘Let’s drink tequila and get crazy,” Dan Smyers shared with Billboard Country Update. “But you know, typical Nashville songwriter, my brain goes off, and I’m like, ‘What if we make it a sad song?’”

However, it’s not all sad thoughts. Instead, the track is more about how certain things evoke emotional memories. “Senses are the ultimate nostalgia triggers. Whether it’s smell or taste, they take you right back. Like anytime I drink Coors Lite or smell Coors Lite, it feels like I’m at a baseball game with my dad when I’m a little kid,” he added.

Dan and Shay Tequila Lyrics

I can still shut down a party
I can hang with anybody
I can drink whiskey and red wine
Champagne all night
Little scotch on the rocks and I’m fine, I’m fine

But when I taste tequila, baby I still see ya
Cutting up the floor in a sorority T-Shirt
The same one you wore when we were
Sky high in Colorado, your lips pressed against the bottle
Swearing on a Bible, baby, I’d never leave ya
I remember how bad I need ya, when I taste tequila
When I taste tequila

I can kiss somebody brand new and not even think about you
I can show up to the same bar
Hear the same songs in my car
Baby, your memory it only hits me this hard

When I taste tequila, baby I still see ya
Cutting up the floor in a sorority t-shirt
The same one you wore when we were
Sky high in Colorado, your lips pressed against the bottle
Swearing on a Bible, baby, I’d never leave ya
I remember how bad I need ya, when I taste tequila
When I taste tequila

I ain’t even drunk, I ain’t even drunk
And I’m thinking
How I need your love, how I need your love
Yeah, it sinks in

When I taste tequila, baby I still see ya
Sorority t-shirt, the same one you wore when we were
Sky high in Colorado, your lips pressed against the bottle
Swearing on a Bible, baby, I’d never leave ya
I remember how bad I need ya, when I taste tequila
When I taste tequila
When I taste tequila
When I taste tequila
