The upbeat jam comes to a head in the chorus, as Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman, Jimi Westbrook, and Phillip Sweet sing: “If you wanna know the secret: Can’t buy it, gotta make it/ You ain’t ever gonna be it by taking someone else’s away/ Never take it for granted, you don’t have to understand it/ Here’s to whatever puts a smile on your face/ Whatever makes you happy, people.”

It was recently announced the country quartet would be performing at the Grammys Feb. 12. Their eigth studio album, The Breaker, comes out Feb. 24.
