I Was Tequila

Sometimes opposite people find a way to attract

But that doesn't mean that they should, and I'm an expert on that

I know she loved me, but I was too set in my ways

I was tequila and she was champagne

She was the sweetest woman that I've ever known

And I was too stupid to change and just let her go

She was a red rose, and I was worn out blue jeans

I was tequila and she was champagne

I was too wild and too fast and too crazy sometimes

She was more steady and lovely and always so fine

I couldn't learn when to stop or when to run from the rain

I was tequila and she was champagne

Today I put her picture in a solid gold frame

To remind me of what I once had and what I let slip away

Then I polished my dirty old boots and I toasted her name

I'm still tequila and she's still champagne

Yeah, I was too wild and too fast and too crazy sometimes

She was more steady and lovely and always so fine

And I couldn't learn when to stop or when to run from the rain

And I was tequila and she was champagne

Oh, I was tequila and she was champagne
