“Tequila Does” Live
Lyric Video
Story Behind the Song
“‘Tequila Does’ is country. And country music makes me happy,” Lambert shares about the track. “No matter how rock or edgy or scorned you can get, when you come back to a country song with a steel guitar, it makes my soul feel like it’s on fire.”
Song Lyrics
His last name was Flores
He came up from Juarez
Lookin’ for a hell of a time
With a blonde senorita
And a tall margarita
We danced on the tables all night
Then I said adios
Casamigos
Is taking me home tonight
‘Cause he don’t love me like tequila does
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
Drink domestic beer
They’re all hat, no cattle
But I won’t sleep alone
‘Cause my old pal Patron
Is taking me home tonight
They don’t love me like tequila does
Nobody can
They don’t give me that border town buzz
Like tequila does
Well, I might as well face it
I’m always chasing
A kiss with a twist of a lime
When I’m drinking doubles
I’m nothing but trouble
And trouble’s so easy to find
Hand me a sombrero
‘Cause Jose Cuervo
Is taking me home tonight
No, they don’t love me like tequila does
Nobody can
They don’t give me that border town buzz
Like tequila does
No, they don’t love me like tequila does
Nobody can
They don’t give me that border town buzz
Like tequila does
They don’t give me that border town buzz
Like tequila does
