| I was at the bar with my drinkin team
|
| It was me Jack Daniels and my homey Jim Bean
|
| We were kinda blitzed and we were trying to behave Y’all
|
| When in walked a soldier he was from the fuzzy naval
|
| We were fallin, stumblin, crawlin
|
| Her come da police, Captain Tom Collins
|
| And the rapper said freeze
|
| He said «hands in the air and hand over your keys»
|
| Now we did, and that was kinda simple
|
| Now here came Marguarita and her friend Shirley Temple
|
| I asked my friend 'bout Marguarita
|
| He said Shirley was a virgin an I wouldn’t wanna meet her
|
| So I talked to Marguarita, cause yoh, she was flyer
|
| I took her to the coast cause I wanted to Screw Driver
|
| Now Im not one for a speech
|
| But there was plenty of Tequila and Sex On The Beach, Y’all
|
| Tequila
|
| Te-Te-Te — Tequila
|
| Tequila
|
| Here we go again and Im not fussin
|
| See I’m a French Mexican but I can get with White Russians
|
| At the bar with a drink in my hand
|
| In walked Jose Cuervo what was marguaritas man
|
| I talked to the wise man cause, yoh he’s distinguished
|
| His name was St. Ives and he spoke in old english
|
| He said «you'd better think fast
|
| Cause Jose is kinda crazy and I heard he Shot Glass»
|
| He gave me some advice and it went like this:
|
| «catch the night train and head up to 'cisco»
|
| I didn’t wanna stick around
|
| I caught the 1:51 to New York, the Grey Hound
|
| Now I’m at the Red Zone, everybody’s stylin'
|
| Was sippin Ice Teas on Long Island
|
| I blacked out and the party came to a halt
|
| Cause I was drinking the Tequila with the lemon assault Y’all
|
| Tequila
|
| Te-Te-Te — Tequila
|
| Tequila
|
| I woke up in the morning and felt like a Zombie
|
| The Tequila Gold Label had bombed me
|
| You see I woke up late and wasn’t feelin' so great
|
| And Mike said there’s a Bicardi party startin' at eight
|
| Yo we walked in the party and started playin our games
|
| We played tops, fuzzy quarters, with Bartles & James
|
| Here came Shirley Temple and they told me to chill
|
| Because the Mickey Brothers took her up to strawberry hill
|
| They took her $ 1000 mink and she could barely think
|
| Cause the Tequila that she drank had her tickled pink
|
| Now the music came on and I rocked the instrumental
|
| There’s a groupie named Mai Tai, a fly oriental
|
| A groupie is a girl that jocks
|
| She wore the def Black Velvet and drank Scotch on the Rocks
|
| We had a fake marriage, now here’s to honeymoon
|
| Ya zone vagabond and the Blue Lagoon
|
| Now everybody take a word from the wise
|
| A girly and a bottle, Tequila Sunrise
|
| Tequila
|
| Te-Te-Te — Tequila
|
| Tequila
|
| Tequila
|
| Te-Te-Te — Tequila
|
| Tequila |
