Stephanie McCoy’s Top 5 Country Songs About Tequila

Kenny Chesney released this song in 2011. The song was co-written by Deana Carter and Matraca Berge, who actually both recorded their own versions. However, it was Kenny Chesney's version that featured Grace Potter that ended up performing well on the charts. The song was also nominated for a couple of Grammy awards including Best County Song and Best Country Duo/Group Performance.

We're going a little old school with this one. Tracy Byrd released "10 Rounds With Jose Cuervo" back in 2002.  The song reached Number One on what used to be known as the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks and is now known as the Hot Country Songs chart.

Dan + Shay released "Tequila" in 2018. It went to number one for them on both the Billboard Country Airplay chart and the Hot Country Songs chart. It won them a Grammy Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance. It also won in both the Single of the Year and Song of the Year categories at the 54th Acadamey of Country Music Awards.

We're going really old school for this one...like back to 1983. (If I had a nickel for every time I've sung this song in my head when I've seen a bottle of tequila at the grocery store...) The song went to the #1 spot on the country charts for Shelly West.

And finally, this is another song that I catch myself singing in my head when I hear the word 'tequila' or see it at the store. It was released in August 2005 and went to #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Here's a weird side note for you...apparently a lot of people think that Kenny Chesney sang the song because when you search for it on YouTube, it automatically fills it in as Kenny Chesney as the artist. Not so much...
