[Crowd Ambience / Colt Adjusts Guitar] [Male Spoken Word (Colt)] Alright... I can't do this next one by myself. [Crowd Starts Reacting] I've known this woman for a long damn time. Long before anybody gave a shit about any of these songs. [Crowd Laughs] We've played little bars... Empty rooms... Places where the bartender was makin' more noise than the crowd. And she's still one of my favorite people I've ever shared a song with. [Pause] Tootsie's... Y'all make some noise for my old friend... KACEY LYNN HART! [Crowd ERUPTS / Applause / Whistles] [Kacey walks onstage] [Female Spoken Word (Kacey)] You gonna behave yourself tonight? [Male Spoken Word (Colt)] Absolutely not. [Crowd Laughs] [Female Spoken Word] Yeah. That's kinda what I figured. [Colt begins bluesy acoustic riff] [Verse 1 — Colt] Yeah, I walked in, saw you right away Same bar, same look on your face You said, "Don't start" I said, "Too late" Couple drinks in, now we both can't behave You say you moved on, say you're doin' fine But your eyes say different every time Yeah, we both know how this goes... One more round... And it all unfolds. [Pre-Chorus — Colt] We say shit we don't mean... But damn... It feels real when we speak. [Chorus — Trading Lines] [Colt] Let the liquor talk Let it say what we won't [Kacey] Let it spill every truth That we hide when we're sober [Both] Yeah, we fight, we fall We cross that line Say shit we regret By the morning light [Colt] Blame it on the buzz Blame it on the pain [Kacey] Blame it on the way We can't walk away [Kacey] Blame it on the way... Boy, you always blame the whiskey. You always do this You push, then pull Say you're done But you never go full I should leave I should know better But you and me... We're a damn disaster. You lean in like you miss my touch Then act like it don't mean that much Damn, you don't get to play both sides... Then blame it on... A Friday night. [Pre-Chorus — Kacey] We say things we can't take back... But we both know... Exactly where we're at. [Chorus — Kacey Leads] [Kacey] Let the liquor talk Let it say what we won't Let it drag every truth Outta the dark and into the open [Both] Yeah, we fight, we fall We cross that line Say shit we regret By the morning light [Kacey] Blame it on the buzz [Colt] Blame it on the pain [Kacey] Blame it on the way... [Both] We can't walk away If it all goes wrong We can say it ain't our fault... We'll just... Let the liquor talk. [Acoustic / Pedal Steel Break] [Bridge — Instruments Pull Back] [Colt] You say you hate me But you're still right here... [Kacey] You say you're done But you're pullin' me near... [Colt] We ain't right... [Kacey] We ain't through... [Colt] You know damn well— [Female Spoken Word - Kacey] Don't you start. [Crowd Laughs] [Colt] See? This is what I'm talkin' about. [Kacey laughs] [Both — Singing] That's the shit... We always do. [Brief Silence] [Female spoken word, softly] Maybe the liquor ain't the problem... [Colt] Maybe it's us. [Crowd Reacts / Band Slams Back In] [Final Chorus — Full Duet] [Both] LET THE LIQUOR TALK LET IT BURN IT DOWN LET IT SAY EVERYTHING WE AIN'T SAYIN' NOW Yeah, we break We bend We lose control But somehow we always End up right back close [Colt] Blame it on the buzz! [Kacey] Blame it on the pain! [Colt] Blame it on me! [Female Lyrics - Kacey] Oh, I already do tomorrow comes And we regret it all... Tonight... We'll just... LET THE LIQUOR TALK! [Big Band Hit / Crowd Cheers] [Everything Drops to One Acoustic Guitar] [Colt — softly] Let the liquor... [Kacey] Tell the truth... [Both — Harmony] Let the liquor... Talk... [Final Chord Rings] [Huge Applause / Whistles] [Male Spoken Word (Colt)] Kacey Lynn Hart, everybody! [Crowd Erupts] [Female Spoken Word (Kacey)] Love you, Colten. [Male Spoken Word (Colt)] Love you too. Still a pain in my ass, though. [Kacey laughs] [Crowd Laughs / Applause]
