Loved this song when I first heard it and couldn't wait to do it.
"Drunk Girl" is a song by American country music singer Chris Janson. Written by him along with Tom Douglas and Scooter Carusoe, it is the second single from his album Everybody. The song is about men showing respect to women, with a particular focus on a young woman who has become intoxicated. Tom Douglas presented Janson and Carusoe with the idea of the song, which is a piano ballad with a central theme of treating females with respect. Specifically, the song tells of taking a woman home to her house after she has had too much to drink, in order to keep her safe. Janson said that the inspiration behind the song came from him seeing news stories of victimized women. He told Rolling Stone Country, "It's teaching the younger generation of men that this is probably the better way to treat a girl...instead of ‘let’s get drunk and hook up.' It's written from a man's perspective, and from a father’s perspective. If my daughters were in that situation, I hope someone would treat them with that respect." He also said that since he and the other two writers are fathers, they chose to apply a "father's perspective"; he also noted that the song received emotional responses from fans in concert before it had even been released as a single, saying that such a reaction "almost means more to me than getting played on the air". Originally, Janson wanted Tim McGraw to record the song, but chose to keep it to himself after his wife, Kelly, persuaded him.
