"But I Got a Beer in My Hand" is a song by American country music singer Luke Bryan. It was released on May 15, 2023 as the lead single from Bryan's upcoming eighth studio album.

History[edit]

Cillea Houghton of American Songwriter wrote that the song is an "upbeat song that is quintessentially Bryan with nods to a deer stand, Lucchese cowboy boots, and, of course, beer. The lyrics find the singer as a man who was just broken up with. But rather than being sad, Bryan has the comfort of a cold one to keep him company."[1] The song was written by Chase McGill, Matt Dragstrem, and Geoff Warburton. In mid-2023, Bryan released a music video directed by Jim Wright and filmed in Springfield, Tennessee.[2]
