Tequila Town

(álbum: Borderline - 1996)

Left Laredo with the sun in my eyes
Broken heart and a bloodshot sky
Been running since she left me alone
Way up north in San Antone
Days get long but I don't get far
Spent last night in some low life bar
Found her memory in some Mezcal haze
Lost my mind while the guitar played

I'm gonna carry this burden way out west
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
Live it up 'til I live her down
Lost in tequila town

Left her standing in a tear-stained dress
I cursed the day that I confessed
Wayward sins of a mortal man
Watched the ring come off her hand

Looking back on all I've lost
Price I've paid ain't worth the cost
I'll run this road until it ends
And maybe find my way back to her again

I'm gonna carry this burden way out west
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
Live it up 'til I live her down
Lost in tequila town

Yea I'm gonna carry this burden way out west
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
Live it up 'til I live her down
Lost in tequila town
Yeah in tequila town
