"I'm Already Taken" is a song co-written and recorded by country music artist Steve Wariner. It was originally released in April 1978 as his debut single, peaking at number 63 on the U.S. Billboard country singles charts. In 1999, Wariner re-recorded the song for his album Two Teardrops. He released this re-recording in July as that album's second single, taking to number 3 on the same chart, as well as number 42 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Wariner co-wrote the song when he was 23 years old. The rendition from Two Teardrops includes a backing vocal from his brother, Terry, who has also sung backing vocals in Wariner's road band. The song was featured on Conway Twitty's 1981 album Mr. T.
