[Verse 1: Mark Wystrach & Mackenzie Carpenter]
We been drinking, but we ain't drunk yet
Just killed a karaoke Kenny and Dolly duet
You wanna tip the band to play one more
And take me out on that sawdust floor

[Chorus: Mackenzie Carpenter & Midland]
I wish, I wish, I wish you would
Keep leaning in and looking good
I can see it on your lips
This tequila wants a kiss
I wish, I wish, I wish you would
