Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You walked in, I felt nothin' Just a hat, just boots, just jeans Ordered up my usual trouble Little lime, lotta gasoline First one down, you got cuter Second round, I liked your laugh By the third, I'm fixin' futures With your name on my front path [Chorus] I only love you when I'm drinkin' (hey!) Shot by shot, my heart starts thinkin' You go from "maybe" to "marry me" Somewhere 'tween two and three When this glass is empty, I remember Why we crashed that last September But the more this bottle keeps shrinkin' The more I love you when I'm drinkin' [Verse 2] You were just my ex on Tuesday By Thursday, barely crossed my mind But it's Friday at the honky-tonk And you're suddenly my favorite kind Fourth round, I'm missin' your mama Fifth round, I'm textin' your dad By the sixth, I'm hummin' first-dance songs Even the bartender looks sad [Chorus] I only love you when I'm drinkin' (oh yeah) Shot by shot, my heart starts thinkin' You go from "warning" to "one true fate" Right around mistake number eight When this glass is empty, I remember How you set my truck on ember But the more this bottle keeps shrinkin' The more I love you when I'm drinkin' [Bridge] One more sip and I'll propose Two more sips, I'm 'bout to toast Three more sips, I can't take it Somebody hide my phone and save me [Chorus] 'Cause I only love you when I'm drinkin' Shot by shot, my heart stops blinkin' You go from "never" to "need you now" 'Til I'm kissin' your face through the crowd When this glass is empty, I remember You're a bad idea forever But the more this bottle keeps shrinkin' The more I love you when I'm drinkin' Yeah, the more I love you when I'm drinkin'

country, Bright modern country with a barroom swing: brushed snare, walking bass, twangy telecaster riffs, and crowd “woah” gang vocals on the hook. Start playful and light, kick up the tempo on the chorus with stacked male harmonies and a stomping backbeat. Fiddle fills answer the vocal lines, and a brief half-time bridge lets the humor land before a big, shout-along final chorus.
