Sweet Tequila Blues Composer(s): Chip Taylor Performer(s): Chip Taylor & Carrie Rodriguez
I keep lookin for it, I hope I never find it If I get close to it just put me on a train And get me back to Austin, oh damn, I miss that town I got them sweet tequila blues comin' down
I knew a man with money in his hand He'd look that Jack of Diamonds in the eye Place it on the four an' let the seven close the door Take all them chips and lay right down and cry
An' I keep lookin for it, I hope I never find it If I get close to it just put me on a train And get me back to Austin, oh damn, I miss that town Got them sweet tequila blues comin' down
Take it Jock
Here comes Carrie
An' I knew a girl who thought she had the world With a slightly racing Spanish lullaby When her dream came into town she threw the whole damn thing around Some Texas girls just love to say goodbye
An' I keep lookin for it, I hope I never find it If I get close to it just put me on a train And get me back to Austin, oh damn, I miss that town Got them sweet tequila blues comin' down
We'll break it now
Now here's one for the ladies Baby, where is my Mercedes? Girl, I'm waitin' for the ribbons and the bows Just keep me guessin'; oh baby, I'm confessin' I know, you want two of them and three of those
An' I keep lookin for it, I hope I never find it If I get close to it just put me on a train And get me back to Austin, oh damn, I miss that town I got them sweet tequila blues comin' down
Texas blues
And get me back to Austin, oh damn, I miss that town I got them sweet tequila blues comin' down Got them sweet tequila blues comin' down
