Drowns The Whiskey (feat. Miranda Lambert)

Thank you my friend Lt Col Charlie Brown for sharing the audio track of Jason Aldean performing Drowns The Whiskey (featuring. Miranda Lambert)
Drowns the Whiskey by Jason Aldean
All the folks down in Lynchburg, Tennessee
Been working hard for good ol' boys like me
I don't wanna be the one to tell 'em
That stuff that they've been selling
Ain't working like it should
But I damn sure wish it would
Whiskey's supposed to drown the memory
I've gone from one to one too many
And the thing that really gets me
Is how your memory drowns the whiskey
Maybe it's the bar or the stool I'm on
Maybe it's the band and the sad old song
That keeps me buying rounds
That keeps me turning down
Any girl that wants to dance
And you ain't giving them a chance
Whiskey's supposed to drown the memory
I've gone from one to one too many
And the thing that really gets me
Is how your memory drowns the whiskey
Girl, I'm living proof that 80 proof
Ain't got…"

Background on the song from songfacts.com/detail.php?id=45137
"This lost-love lament finds Jason Aldean duetting with Miranda Lambert. Aldean discussed how the ballad came to be.

"Miranda and I have known each other for a long time," he said. "We kind of got started in this business together. We did a song together on my second album [2007's Relentless], called 'Grown Woman, which turned out to probably be my favorite song on the album."

Aldean added that ever since their first collaboration, he'd wanted to record more tracks with Lambert: "I'm always looking for ways to collaborate with other people in general," he said, "and I knew I wanted to do something else with her."
"Drowns the Whiskey" wasn't the first tune that Aldean pitched to Lambert. "I had a [different] song in mind, and I sent it to her, and she was kind of iffy on it," he said. "I was like, 'Hey, listen, if you don't like it, it's cool. I want you to love whatever we wind up doing. We'll find something else.'"

So Aldean sent Lambert this track. "She loved it," he said.
Aldean told ABC Radio that he nearly gave the song to Tyler Farr. "I was actually producing some sides on Tyler Farr, a couple years back," he recalled. "And it was a song that I actually wanted to record on him. We ended up not recording it on him. And so, I told him if he didn't cut it, I was gonna cut it. So I did."
The song wasn't originally written as a duet. "I just thought she would sound great on it," Aldean explained regarding teaming up with Lambert. "Because it's a little more on the traditional side, which she tends to lean toward a little bit. So I sent it, and she jumped on it, and came in, and you heard the rest."
