Pam Tillis - Tequila Mockingbird lyrics

Where strangers stop to hear her sing a song

she's a legend 'round these parts

for stealing all the hearts of cowboys on thier way to San Antone

(Bridge1)

She used to be a desert rose with ballerina toes

but that wasn't in the cards she chose to play

the pages of her life are wrinkled but her spanish eyes still twinkle

everytime she steps out on the stage

(Chorus)

Tequila mockingbird flying underneath the neon moon

tequila mockingbird dreaming of a love that ended too soon

she sings that saddesr song you ever heard

so bittersweet

tequila mockingbird

tequila mockingbird

well now once she had a man and they called him diamond man

he was wild and reckless as a mustang stud

'till one night Tequila found him with the gamblers gathered 'round him

Lyin' in a pool of cheater's blood

(Chorus)

she sings ooh woo hoo hoo

it wasn't god who made those blue neon angels

Ooh woo hoo hooh

I know he's waiting on the other side for me

(Chorus)

she sings ooh hoo woo hoo hoo

she sings ooh hoo woo hoo hoo ooh
