Tequila Annie (Why I Drink)
I fall down the stairs and make you wait
For the golden ticket that you bought late
You let me lie here long enough to think
"Dear Lord, my dear, you're why I drink"
I can taste the coconut on your lips
It suits you well on nights like this
You hold me by the waist so I don't sink
Dear Lord, my dear, you're why I drink
Oh, what have you done to me
Oh, red is all I see, girl
Oh, Tequila Annie
Oh, Tequila Annie
Oh, Tequila Annie, you're why I drink
I found my religion in your eyes
Then you found yours when I called you mine
The devil took you away before I blinked
We've been here before, yeah it's why I drink
Oh, what have you done to me
Oh, red is all I see, girl
Oh, Tequila Annie
Oh, Tequila Annie
Oh, Tequila Annie, you're why I drink
Oh, leave my flesh
Leave my heart and keep my foolishness
For I don't know
Which way to go so I'll follow my own head
'Cause you bring me down
You hold your ground, then you offer me your hand
You let me lie here long enough to think
"Dear Lord, my dear, you're why I drink"
