Tequila Mockingbird

It's a slow, smoky scene at the county line catina Where strangers stop to hear her sing a song She's a legend 'round these parts For stealing all the hearts of cowboys on their way to San Antone 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 Tequila Mockingbird, flying underneath the neon moon Tequila Mockingbird, dreaming of a love that ended too soon She sings the saddest songs you ever heard So bittersweet Tequila Mockingbird, Tequila Mockingbird Well now once she had a man, and they called him Diamond Dan He was wild and reckless as a mustang stud 'Til one night Tequila found him with the gamblers gathered 'round him Lyin' in a pool of cheater's blood Tequila Mockingbird, flying underneath the neon moon Tequila Mockingbird, dreaming of a love that ended too soon She sings the saddest songs you ever heard So bittersweet Tequila Mockingbird, Tequila Mockingbird She sings ooh hoo, 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 Tequila Mockingbird, flying underneath the neon moon Tequila Mockingbird, dreaming of a love that ended too soon She sings the saddest songs you ever heard So bittersweet Tequila Mockingbird, Tequila Mockingbird She sings ooh hoo, woo hoo hoo She sings ooh hoo, woo hoo hoo ooh
