Bobby Bare - Tequila Sheila Lyrics

(Shel Silverstein - Mac Davis)

Pour me another tequila Shella.

Chorus:
Pour me another Tequila Sheila
Take off that red satin dress
I crossed the border and I beat the dealer
For all the damn gold in Juarez.

I feel like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila
And sure could use a friend
So pour me another Tequilla Sheila
And lay down n' love me again.

No, I can't tell you about it
But don't mind the gun by my bed
I feel kind of naked without it
And it eases the fear in my head.

So just pass me the salt n' the lemon
Bend down an' blow out the light
I never had trusted the woman
But Sheila I'll trust you tonight.

Chorus:
Pour me another Tequila, Sheila
Take off that red satin dress
I crossed the border and I beat the dealer
For all the damn gold in Juarez.

I feel like old Pancho Villa, Sheila
And I've got the Pesso to spend
So pour me another Tequilla, Sheila
And lay down an' love me again.

Sheila I'm hearing your heart beat
But I'm hearing footsteps outside
The courtyard is crawling with damn federalis
And Sheila there's no place to hide.

I don't know who could have tipped 'em
Nobody knew it but you
But I can't make love to a squealer, Sheila
So I guess there's just one thing to do.

Pour me another Tequila, Sheila.
I'm going to put on your red satin dress
You put on my cloths an' you go out and face the dealer
And Sheila, I wish you the best.

So pour me another Tequila, Sheila
And I'll ride for the border again
Yeah, pour me another Tequila, Sheila
And I'll run for the border again...
