TEQUILA SHEILA
By: Bobby Bare 


 	        
(1st Chorus)  Pour me another tequila, Sheila.
 	  	  	 
Take off that red satin dress.

I crossed the border, and I beat the dealer,
     	  	  	     
For all the damn gold in Juarez.

I feel like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila.
 	  	   	   
And I sure could use me a friend.
                           
So pour me another tequila, Sheila,
     	  	   	   
And lay down and love me again.

             
(1st Verse)  No I can't tell you about it.
                         
Don't mind the gun by my bed.

I feel kinda naked without it,
                             
And it eases the fears in my head.

So just pass me the salt and the lemon,
                         
Bend down and blow out the light.
 	  	  	        
I never have trusted the women,
     	  	   	      
but Sheila, I'll trust you tonight.

           
(2nd Chorus)  Pour me another tequila, Sheila.
 	  	  	 
Take off that red satin dress.

I crossed the border, and I beat the dealer
     	  	  	     
For all the damn gold in Juarez.
                                 
I feel like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila,
 	              
And I got the pesos to spend
                           
So pour me another tequila, Sheila,
     	  	   	   
And lay down and love me again.


(2nd Verse – Chord change to D)

Sheila I'm hearin' your heartbeat,
                             
But I'm hearing footsteps outside.

The courtyard is crawlin' with them Federalis.
 	  	  	  	 
And Sheila, there's no place to hide.

I don't know who could have tipped 'em.
        	    
Nobody knew it but you.

But I can't make love to a squealer, Sheila
                                 
So I guess there's just one thing to do.  Yeah!

 	       
(3rd Chorus)  Pour me another tequila, Sheila.
 	  	  	  	 
I'm gonna put on your red satin dress.

You put on my clothes, and you go out and face the dealer
 	  	  	   
And Sheila I wish you the best.

I feel like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila.
 	        	   
I need a fast horse and a friend.
 	  	       	    
So pour me another tequila Sheila,
                         
And I'll run for the border again.
        	  	       
Yeah, pour me another tequila, Sheila
                         
And I'll run for the border again.
