whiskey and tequila - gerrie keen lyrics

there’s something about a girl
in skin tight jeans
dancing in a line dance
like in some movie scenes
with a cowboy hat
placed slightly skew upon her head
and at the end of the night
her boots tucked neat
underneath my bed

[spoken words]
i was drinking whiskey
and she was into tequila
i said to her… girl
one dance with me wouldn’t k!ll ya
i saw a smile run
right across her face
when she whispered to me…
wait till we’re at your place

man, it was like i was back in the rodeo
back in the day
when i was the star of the show
but this little lady
was more than i could handle
and this cowboy was done
before we even burnt up the candle
that was one h*ll of a ride
i’ll never forget that friday night
mary*lou was the girl i have seen
dancing in that skin tight jeans
i knew it right from the start
she was the one
who tamed this cowboy’s heart

now years rolled on like dust clouds
chasing shadows on an open plain
she’d hum her favourite cowboy tune
while i fixed fences in the rain
she’d steal my flannel jacket
when the winter mornings bit
and i’d grin like some fool ranch hand
’cause it was a perfect fit

we never needed fireworks
just the quiet truth between us two
her laughter filled the wildest nights
and made old memories feel new

’cause that woman, lord, she steadied me
like a sunrise after storms
turned my reckless, wandering spirit
into something safe and warm
we built a life from dust and dreams
no script, no fancy parts
and after all these years, she’s still
the queen of this cowboy’s heart
she says i saved her from her past
but she saved me twice as much
pulled the th*rns out of my story
with her gentle, stubborn touch
and when the world turns heavy
she still slips her hand in mine
like that first night on the dance floor
two hearts beating right in time

yeah mary*lou, she’s the reason
i hung my wild days on the wall
where her boots once lay beneath my bed
now they stand in our front hall
from that first spark in the neon light
to a life we made from scratch
she’s the fire that never fl!ckers
and the love i’ll always catch
’cause since that night, i knew it true—
she’s the queen who claimed my heart…
and i’m hers, for every sunrise
till the last star falls apart
