Chris Young has landed himself in the dawg house.

The Country singer-songwriter was arrested at a Nashville bar Monday night and charged with disorderly conduct.

Young (“Gettin’ You Home”) stopped off at the Tin Roof Bar in midtown Nashville at the same time agents from the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission were checking IDs and licenses, according to TMZ.

Young, 38, allegedly started peppering the agents with questions after they checked his ID — and things got out of control from there.

Officials say he recorded them and then followed them to an adjacent bar called The Dawg House, where TABC officials were conducting a routine compliance check, according to the report.

When Young was in The Dawg House, he allegedly started to talk to people at the bar, and to the bartender, while the TABC agents went into the back of the joint to check ABC [Restricted Brewery License] cards.

The agents claim that they were walking toward the door when Young blocked their exit and put his hands on one of the agents to stop them from leaving — and then he allegedly struck the agent on the shoulder.

According to the officials, they pushed Young away, which caused some bar patrons to get between Young and the TABC agents — causing a lot of yelling, screaming and commotion.

Young then followed the agents out of The Dawg House, according to TMZ, and the situation became “hostile.”

Officials said Young’s eyes were “bloodshot and watery” and that his speech was slurred.

He was arrested and booked on misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and assault on an officer offensive contact.”

Young, who posted $2,500 bond, was released from custody Tuesday morning.
