“Drunk (and I Don’t Wanna Go Home)” Official Music Video
“The true story of this song sums up our wild friendship. Miranda is someone I have looked up to as a songwriter, musician, performer, and human being for a long time. So our tumbleweed snowball story of getting to know each other is the ultimate real deal kinda thing,” King shared in a press release. “Nobody revs me up, kicks my ass on stage, or treats me more like family than Miranda Lambert. Our rowdy reputations [precede] us, so who else could sing this song together beside us? ”
“Crawling out of such a crazy year, still full of so many unknowns, I ultimately couldn’t think of another person I’d rather come out singin’ and swingin’ with than the most badass chick I know: Miranda,” she continued.
Lambert also added her own thoughts on her relationship with King “new friends but it really feels like we are old friends and I felt like that immediately when I met her at one of her shows.”
“Since then, we’ve toured together and sang on stage together, hung out and partied together, recorded together, and so much more,” she said. “This song just feels like the natural transition to the afterparty.”
“Drunk (And I Don’t Wanna Go Home)” Lyrics
I’ve got some money in my pocket
Got some trouble on my tail
I can hear the dives a-knocking
Guess I’m heading off the rails
Singing ooh ooh ooh ooh
I’m talking about you-ooh-ooh-ooh
I’ve got some new best friends forever
See, I met ’em at the bar
Well the whiskey goes down better
When they don’t know who you are
Singing ooh ooh ooh ooh
I’m talking about you-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh gonna feel this in the morning
Ooh ’cause I’m going hard tonight
So bartender, take my keys
What do you want from me
Baby I’m drunk and I don’t wanna go home
I’m not staying in to fight
I’m staying out all night
Baby I’m drunk and I don’t wanna go home
We don’t got to wait until the weekend
There’s always time for jumping off the deep end
So don’t you wait up tonight
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
Baby I’m drunk and I don’t wanna go home
Yeah
We’re in the bathroom getting chatty
There’s a line out in the hall
Tryin’to be my Sugar Daddy
Getting’ handsy in the stall
Singin’-ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
I’m talking about you-ooh ooh ooh
You like my gin n’ tonic kisses
‘Cause you know they taste so sweet
And I know you’ve got your missus
But there ain’t no one like me
Talking about you-ooh ooh ooh
I’m talking about you-ooh ooh ooh
Ooh gonna feel this in the morning
Ooh ’cause I’m going hard tonight
So bartender, take my keys
What do you want from me
Baby I’m drunk and I don’t wanna go home
I’mnot staying in to fight
I’m staying out all night
Baby I’m drunk and I don’t wanna go home
We don’t got to wait until the weekend
There’s always time for jumping off the deep end
So don’t you wait up tonight
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
Baby I’m drunk and I don’t wanna go home
Well
I don’t wanna
Don’t wanna go home
I don’t wanna
So bartender, take my keys
What do you want from me
Baby I’m drunk and I don’t wanna go home
I’m not staying in to fight
I’m staying out all night
Baby I’m drunk and I don’t wanna go home
We don’t got to wait until the weekend
There’s always time for jumping off the deep end
So don’t you wait up tonight
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
Baby I’m drunk and I don’t wanna go home
Well
Ooh
I don’t wanna
Don’t wanna go home
I don’t wanna
Don’t wanna go home
