Tequila
Wes Montgomery Lyrics

I was at the bar with my drinkin team,
I was socializing with my friends at the bar

It was me Jack Daniels and my homey Jim Bean.
I was drinking with my friends named Jack Daniels and Jim Bean

We were kinda blitzed and we were trying to behave Y'all
We were a little drunk and trying to act appropriately

when in walked a soldier he was from the fuzzy naval.
Suddenly a soldier from the Fuzzy Naval came in

We were fallin, stumblin, crawlin
We were drunk and having difficulty standing or walking

her come da police, Captain Tom Collins,
The police, Captain Tom Collins, arrived

and the rapper said freeze
The police ordered us to freeze

he said "hands in the air and hand over your keys"
The police demanded we put our hands up and hand over our car keys

now we did, and that was kinda simple,
We complied with the police, which was easy

now here came Marguarita and her friend Shirley Temple.
Two women, Marguarita and Shirley Temple, arrived

I asked my friend 'bout Marguarita,
I inquired about Marguarita from my friend

he said Shirley was a virgin an I wouldn't wanna meet her.
My friend warned me that Shirley was a virgin that I should not pursue

So I talked to Marguarita, cause yoh, she was flyer.
I then talked to Marguarita, who was more attractive to me

I took her to the coast cause I wanted to Screw Driver.
I took Marguarita to have Screw Driver cocktail by the coast

Now Im not one for a speech,
I am not one for long speeches

but there was plenty of Tequila and Sex On The Beach, Y'all.
We had a lot of Tequila and enjoyed the beach, including having Sex On The Beach cocktail

Here we go again and Im not fussin,
The story continues and I am not complaining

see I'm a French Mexican but I can get with White Russians,
Despite being French Mexican, I don't mind having White Russian cocktails

at the bar with a drink in my hand.
I was drinking at the bar again

In walked Jose Cuervo what was marguaritas man.
Jose Cuervo, who was with Marguarita earlier, came in

I talked to the wise man cause, yoh he's distinguished.
I asked for advice from a wise man who seemed distinguished

His name was St. Ives and he spoke in old english.
The wise man was named St. Ives and talked using old-fashioned English

He said "you'd better think fast,
The wise man warned me to act quickly

cause Jose is kinda crazy and I heard he Shot Glass".
He warned me that Jose Cuervo is unpredictable and tends to drink shots

He gave me some advice and it went like this:
The wise man gave me advice as follows

"catch the night train and head up to 'cisco"
He suggested taking the night train to San Francisco (Cisco)

I didn't wanna stick around,
I decided to follow the wise man's advice

I caught the 1:51 to New York, the Grey Hound.
I took the 1:51 bus to New York using Grey Hound bus service

Now I'm at the Red Zone, everybody's stylin'.
I arrived at the Red Zone where everyone was dressing fashionably

Was sippin Ice Teas on Long Island.
I was having Long Island Iced Teas

I blacked out and the party came to a halt,
I got blackout drunk, causing the party to stop

cause I was drinking the Tequila with the lemon assault Y'all
I got very drunk from the Tequila with lemon flavor

I woke up in the morning and felt like a Zombie,
I woke up feeling like a zombie

the Tequila Gold Label had bombed me.
The Tequila Gold Label had made me very drunk

You see I woke up late and wasn't feelin' so great,
I woke up late and didn't feel well

And Mike said there's a Bicardi party startin' at eight.
My friend Mike told me about a Bacardi party at 8 pm

Yo we walked in the party and started playin our games,
We went to the party and started playing games

we played tops, fuzzy quarters, with Bartles & James.
We played various games with spinning tops, fuzzy quarters, and a drink brand called Bartles & James

Here came Shirley Temple and they told me to chill,
Shirley Temple came in and someone told me to relax

because the Mickey Brothers took her up to strawberry hill.
The Mickey Brothers took her to Strawberry Hill, a place for private parties

They took her $1000 mink and she could barely think,
The Mickey Brothers took her expensive mink and she was too drunk to think properly

cause the Tequila that she drank had her tickled pink.
She was made happy and excited by the Tequila she consumed

Now the music came on and I rocked the instrumental.
The music started and I danced to the instrumentals

There's a groupie named Mai Tai, a fly oriental.
I noticed a groupie named Mai Tai, an attractive Asian woman

A groupie is a girl that jocks,
A groupie is a girl who admires or follows musicians

She wore the def Black Velvet and drank Scotch on the Rocks.
She wore a cool outfit called Black Velvet and drank Scotch on the Rocks

We had a fake marriage, now here's to honeymoon,
The groupie and I pretended to get married, and now we are pretending to honeymoon

Ya zone vagabond and the Blue Lagoon.
We're vagabonds, with the Blue Lagoon cocktail in hand

Now everybody take a word from the wise,
Now everyone should listen to the wise man

A girly and a bottle, Tequila Sunrise.
Having a girl and a bottle of Tequila Sunrise makes everything better
