[Verse 1]
It was a Monday night, I was killing time
You were sitting 'bout five seats down
With your hair pulled back, all dressed in black
You stood out in this crowd
After my first drink, you did the right thing
And slid about three seats over
You looked my way as if to say
It’s okay, boy, move a little closer
And I said
[Chorus]
I'm an Old Fashioned, you're a Manhattan
Sitting in a smoky downtown bar
You ever been to LA? Drove across the country
In some car that barely starts
There’s a shine in your eye
Telling me that you might just want me to take you home
At the same time, girl, I ain't got no expectations
These are just cocktail convеrsations
Oh-oh, yeah
[Verse 2]
You asked me whеre I was from and why I got that Elvis tattoo
I said my ol' man is an Elvis fan and my granddad was one too
I asked you why a girl like you was in here on your own
You smiled and winked, took a sip of my drink, and said, "Boy, I ain't here alone"
[Chorus]
'Cause you're an Old Fashioned, I'm a Manhattan
Sitting in a smoky downtown bar
I've never been to LA, or drove across the country
I don’t need to see the stars
There’s a shine in your eye
Telling me that you might just want to take me home
At the same time, boy, I ain't got no expectations
These are just cocktail conversations
Oh-oh
Cocktail conversations
[Bridge]
Oh, there’s no telling where this might lead
Oh-oh, I know it brought you here to me
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm an Old Fashioned, you're a Manhattan
Sitting in a smoky downtown bar
You ever been to LA? Drove across the country
In some car that barely starts
There’s a shine in your eye
Telling me that you might just want me to take you home
At the same time, girl, I ain't got no expectations
These are just cocktail conversations
Oh-oh
[Outro]
Cocktail conversations
Oh-oh
Cocktail conversations
Oh-oh

How did the song come together?
The song came together effortlessly. I went into the room that day to write with John Caldwell & Dylan Altman. I told them how I had a title that I had been holding onto for a while. It never seemed to make the cut in any other write. That day just seemed to be the lucky day for that title and i...
What inspired it?
The things I really like to do inspired the song. I wanted a song that gave hints of that away while incorporating in who I actually am into the song. On the second verse I mentioned my Elvis tattoo and how my grandpa and dad are Elvis fans, all in which are true facts.
What was the process of making the song like?
The process of making the song was easy and also memorable. Working with my producers really took things to a whole new level. We experimented with the key and melodies in the song. We weren’t afraid to try something new while still keeping the classic country and soul elements that I’m drawn to.
