Wrangled contains several songs with noteworthy collaborations. "Dreams Don't Come True" reunites Presley with her Pistol Annies bandmates Ashley Monroe and Miranda Lambert.[2] Chris Stapleton co-wrote "Only Blood", which features Stapleton's wife Morgane on vocals.[2] Wanda Jackson, known as "Queen of Rockabilly," co-wrote "Good Girl Down" with Presley and Vanessa Olivarez.[3] "Cheer Up Little Darling", a song Presley co-wrote with Guy Clark, was the final song Clark completed before he died on May 17, 2016.[3] As a tribute, Shawn Camp played Clark's mandola and his No. 10 guitar (which was used to write the song).[2] Audio of Clark reciting the first verse is heard in the song before Presley starts singing.[4]
