HE DRINKS TEQUILA by Lorrie Morgan & Sammy Kershaw
From the Album 'I Finally Found Someone"

I love this song! It's recorded in Ab, but I've transposed it down to 'E'
which makes it reachable for most male singers, and easy to play.
Corrections to any of the lyrics would be appreciated, as I don't speak
Spanish, and my interpretation of the Spanish bits are a wild guess!
INTRO: A /E /B /E /E
[E]EVERYBODY KNOWS HER, LITTLE MISS ROSA, THE QUEEN OF THE TRAILER[A]PARK
WELL SHE’S A HIGH TAPPER AND YOU’LL[E]NEVER FORGET HER
IF YOU [F#]EVER LET HER BREAK YOUR [B]HEART
[E]SEÑOR JOSÉ WORKS ALL DAY SWEATIN’ IN THE RED-HOT[A]SUN
ROW AFTER ROW, [E]EVERYBODY KNOWS WHAT THEY [E]DO WHEN THE WEEKEND COMES…
CHORUS:
[E]HE DRINKS TEQUILA AND SHE TALKS DIRTY IN [B]SPANISH
HIM IN HIS SOMBRERO, HER IN HER PURTY PINK [E]JAMMIES
THEY DANCE ALL NIGHT TO THE MARIACHI
‘TIL THERE AIN’T NOBODY LEFT [A]STANDIN’
HE DRINKS TEQUILA AND [E]SHE TALKS [B7]DIRTY IN [E]SPANISH
WELL THE MUSIC IS BLARIN’ AND THE NEIGHBOURS ARE STARIN’,
THAT WHOLE DANG TRAILER IS ROCKIN’

Repeat CHORUS X 2
Repeat LAST LINE
