Gravy Train? More like Gravy Twain.
That's what TikTokers are coining this collab. University of Wisconsin-Madison alum Yung Gravy and queen of country pop Shania Twain just released a song together.
And, it's an ode of sorts to the hard seltzer people love or love to hate on: White Claw.
Gravy (aka Matthew Hauri) is in his "country Gravy season," according to his TikTok bio. And, who better to walk through that season with than a five-time Grammy Award winner and the legend behind hits like "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" and "That Don't Impress Me Much."
This is the second recent country-inspired song Gravy has put out. His other, "Clementine," samples the wildly popular "Chicken Fried" by Zac Brown Band.

Both Gravy and Twain played Milwaukee last year — Gravy a couple of times. And Twain, for the first time in 20 years. Gravy, a Minnesota native, is due to be back for a show at the Wisconsin State Fair later this summer on his "Grits & Gravy" tour.
Here's a look at the unlikely duo's new single, "White Claw," and how to catch Gravy live in Wisconsin:
A look at Yung Gravy, Shania Twain's new song, 'White Claw'
While the rapper is known for his upbeat, tongue-in-cheek bops, like "Betty" and "oops!," Gravy's tune with Twain is giving twangy ballad.
Is it still every bit as out there? Oh yes, absolutely.
After a melancholy sounding intro complete with harmonica and strumming, Gravy's deep — and we mean deep — voice tells listeners to "Grab a Claw, baby."
The rapper sings about a recently divorced gal who's gluten-free.
"I'm a gentleman, so without a pause, I brought her a case of Claws," the lyrics go.
Fact check: According to White Claw's website, the hard seltzer is indeed gluten-free.
In the chorus, Gravy says he has "every kind," which he rhymes with "Lemon Lime" while listing a few other flavor options for his lady.
Then, we get our first taste of Twain. She jumps in with "Oh, whiskey's just not for me and tequila makes it hard to see at all."
"So, when he calls," she continues. Gravy answers with: "Say f---- it all. Baby, let's have a Claw."
In Verse 2, the country pop superstar gives kudos to "the boss," doing "all he can for what a woman wants."
Then Twain says that man likes to think she's broken because it makes him "feel important." We reckon that's a major red flag.
"He'd give anything to save me," she sings. "Oh, he thinks I'm his baby."
She confesses that sometimes she'd love to leave him, but thinks "he'd just stop breathing." And, all of her friends — and their mothers — love him. Gravy does have a thing for moms.
And, why do they all love him? Apparently, "because he brought the Claws."
After duetting the chorus, Gravy dives into Verse 3. There's a pretty darn cute line in there about always catching the woman he's singing about "cheesing" even though she's dairy-free. But, besides that, the rest of the verse pretty much alludes to substance use.
The two finish out the song together with one more round of the chorus.
Yung Gravy and Shania Twain promote new song 'White Claw' in matching outfits
In promos for the collab, Gravy and Twain are hardcore twinning. And, honestly, it just feels right since they've both been known to don some flashy and bold fits.
They're sporting furry black coats lined with hot pink, satin-looking pink heeled boots with gold accents, and the same statement necklace.
Twain is in a chainmail-esque dress with black torn tights, while Gravy is in a shirt made of the same material. He paired it with damask-printed black pants, a black cowboy hat and gold watch.
In one of their videos, Gravy is singing the "White Claw" chorus alone on a white couch. When it gets to Twain's part, she comes into frame and playfully elbows him as she takes a seat.
In another, they do the hilarious TikTok trend that features two people annoyed after realizing they've both put on the same outfit. It's usually obvious that one of them wouldn't typically be wearing whatever it is.
When Twain comes out of a room and sees Gravy in the ensemble she's wearing, she lip-syncs "s---" with the audio. Gravy says the same thing after realizing what's up.
