"Tequila Does" lyrics

Jack Ingram, Miranda Lambert & Jon Randall Lyrics

"Tequila Does"

His last name was Flores
He came up from Juárez lookin' for a hell of a time
With a blonde señorita
And a tall margarita
We danced on the tables all night
Then I said, "Adiós, Casamigos is takin' me home tonight"

'Cause he don't love me like tequila does
Mmm, nobody can
He don't give me that border town buzz
Like tequila does

I'd sure like to find
A cowboy tonight
To get me back in the saddle
But the boys around here
They drink domestic beer
They're all hat, no cattle
But I won't sleep alone
'Cause my old pal Patrón is takin' me home tonight

'Cause he don't love me like tequila does
Mmm, nobody can
He don't give me that border town buzz
Like tequila does

Well, I might as well face it
I'm always chasin' a kiss with a twist of a lime
And when I'm drinkin' doubles
I'm nothin' but trouble
And trouble's so easy to find
So, hand me a sombrero
'Cause Jose Cuervo
Is takin' me home tonight (Takin' her down tonight)

He don't love me like tequila does
Mmm, nobody can
He don't give me that border town buzz
Like tequila does
He don't love me like tequila does
Mmm, nobody can
He don't give me that border town buzz
Like tequila does
He don't give me that border town buzz
Like tequila does
