Drinking Tequila Songtext
von Jim Reeves

I′m just gettin' back from Juarez Mexico
And I′ll tell you something I want you to know
My poor head is aching, it throbs and it twirls
From drinking tequila and teasing the girls

Don't get me wrong because I'm not complaining
I have no regrets, I am only explaining
For all of you fellows that ain′t had the thrill
Of drinking tequila and teasing the girls

Ooh ah, happy tonight
The maidens are dancing out in the moonlight
Ooh ah, on top of the world
Drinking tequila and teasing the girls

Moonlight and flowers make night so appealing
The breeze from the garden comes tenderly stealing
A beautiful maiden then whispers your name
And suddenly both of your hearts are aflame


Her dark eyes are gleamin′, her raven hair shining
You pull her up closer, your hearts are entwinning
Her warm lips are thrilling, you're out of this world
From drinking tequila and teasing the girls

Hee ha, it′s good, tome usted
Tengo el dinero, vamos a cafe
Hee ha, he cha bate ya
Tequila tomar y muchachas amo

If down in Juarez you should happen to be
The Cafe El Gusto's the place you should see
They claim that they have, and I know it′s so
The prettiest dancers in old Mexico

When Spanish maidens start squirmin' and dancin′
It's sure to set any young heart to romancin'
Your troubles get lighter, your worries unfurl
While drinking tequila and teasing the girls

Ooh ha, so happy tonight
The maidens are dancing out
In the moonlight
Ooh ha, on top of the world
Drinking, tequila and teasing the girls
