I was at the bar with my drinking team 

And it was me, Jack Daniels and my homie Jim Beam 

We were kinda blizzed and we were tryin to behave, yo 

When in walked a soldier, he was from the Fuzzy Navel 

We were fallin, stumblin, crawlin 

In came the police, Captain Tom Collins 

And the vato said, "Freeze!" (Freeze!) 

He said, "Hands in the air and hand over your keys" 

Now we did, and that was kinda simple 

Now here came Margarita and her friend Shirley Temple 

I asked my friend 'bout Margarita 

He said that Shirley was a virgin and I wouldn't wanna meet her 

So I talked to Margarita, cause, yo, she was flyer 

I took her to the couch, cause I wanted to srew-drive her 

Now I'm not one for a speech 

But there was plenty of Tequila and Sex on the Beach 

Y'all 

Tequila 



[ *horn section plays the 'Tequila' theme* ] 



T-T-T-Tequila 



Yeah 



Alright 



Come on 



[ crowd ] 

TEQUILA! 



[ VERSE 2 ] 

Here we go again and I'm not fussin 

See, I'm a French Mexican but I kick it with White Russians 

At the bar with the drink in my hand 

In walked José Cuevo, it was Margarita's man 

I talked to the Wise Man, cause yo, he's distinguished 

His name is St. Ides and he spoke in Olde English 

He said, "You better think fast 

Cause José is kinda crazy and I heard he shot blast" 

He gave me some advice and it went like this, yo 

"Catch the Nighttrain and head up to 'Cisco" 

I didn't wanna stick around 

I caught the 1(:)51 to New York, the Greyhound 

Now I'm at the Red Zone, everybody stylin 

Showbiz was sippin Ice Teas on Long Island 

I blacked out, the party came to a halt 

Cause I was drinkin the Tequila with the lemon and salt 

Y'all 

Tequila 



[ *horn section plays the 'Tequila' theme* ] 



T-T-T-Tequila 



Yeah 



Alright 



[ crowd ] 

TEQUILA! 



[ VERSE 3 ] 

I woke up in the morning and felt like a zombie 

The Tequila Gold Label had bombed me 

You see, I woke up late, I wasn't feelin so great 

And Mike said, "There's a Bacardi party startin at 8" 

Yo, we walked in the party and started playin our games 

We played tops, ??? and quarters with Bartles & Jaymes 

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 a def Black Velvet and drank Scotch on the rocks 

We had a Fake Marriage, now here's the Honeymoon 

Yo, it's on, Vagabond at the Blue Lagoon 

Now everybody take a couple of words from the wise 

A girlie and a bottle - Tequila Sunrise 

Tequila 



[ *horn section plays the 'Tequila' theme* ] 



Yeah 



Alright 



Come on 



[ crowd ] 

TEQUILA!
