"Drunk (And I Don't Wanna Go Home)" is a song by American singers Elle King and Miranda Lambert. It was released on February 26, 2021 as the lead single from King's third studio album Come Get Your Wife.[2] The song reached number one on the Country Airplay chart in April 2022, becoming the first female duet to reach the top of the charts in almost thirty years following Reba McEntire and Linda Davis' "Does He Love You" in 1993.[3]

The song was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance, the Country Music Association Award for Musical Event of the Year and won the Academy of Country Music Award for Video of the Year.

Miranda Lambert teased the song on social media on February 23, 2021.[4] The song was recorded prior to the COVID-19 pandemic in both Nashville and New York.[2] Rolling Stone described the song as a "neon-spattered, banjo-flecked euphoria that fits perfectly with the idea of blowing off steam well into the wee hours".[2]

King and Lambert performed the song live for the first time when they opened the 56th Academy of Country Music Awards on April 18, 2021.[5]

Music video

The song's music video stars King and Lambert singing the song's lyrics on a stage in a wedding chapel. The video also contains footage of many guests dancing and performing other wedding traditions. Halfway through the music video, Lambert pours an alcoholic beverage into a bowl of punch in order to fit the topic of the song.
