Stayed out a little late
Past closing time
Drank my cares away
With Jose and lime
It had to be fate
That walked through that door
A knock out blonde
I never seen before
She was high class
And so refined
Wasn't bout to drink
Any homemade shine
She asked for a glass
Of Jose and lime
Drank our cares away
Past closing time
Can't blame the tequila
For the hurt that's in my head
Can't blame the tequila
For the things I shouldn't have said
Can't blame the tequila
For putting me in this pain
But I can blame that woman
For driving me insane
Saw the fire in her eyes
Ignored the morning signs
Another shot of courage
Gave her my best line
Whispered in her ear
Be my partner in crime
She said you'll be going home
Alone at closing time
Can't blame the tequila
For the hurt that's in my head
Can't blame the tequila
For the things I shouldn't have said
Can't blame the tequila
For putting me in this pain
But I can blame that woman
For driving me insane
Can't blame the tequila
For the hurt that's in my head
Can't blame the tequila
For the things I shouldn't have said
Can't blame the tequila
For putting me in this pain
But I can blame that woman
For driving me insane
Can't blame the tequila
For the hurt that's in my head
Can't blame the tequila
For the things I shouldn't have said
Can't blame the tequila
For putting me in this pain
But I can blame that woman
For driving me insane
