The Lyrics
The song tells the story of a man who is mesmerized by an alluring woman at a bar. Each sip of tequila causes her to shed each layer of clothing. The lyrics reflect the night of intoxication and how it changed their lives, mainly due to the woman’s good looks and mesmerizing aura emanating from her.
- Verse 1:
And I saw her smile and I watched her sway
Gonna talk to her but I didn’t know what to say
So I asked her for a dance, yeah she gave me a chance
Said she’d been hurt before, said I didn’t
need no more
She started to laugh and said, “Well, what would ya have?” - Chorus:
Tequila makes her clothes fall off (hey hey)
Tequila makes her clothes fall off (hey hey)
Red lipstick and high heels (hey hey)
And tequila makes her clothes fall off - Verse 2:
Now I ain’t had a drink since the night before
But I’m next to her and one thing’s for sure
Said, “I’m startin’ to feel like I’m sinkin’ in quicksand
Tequila takes over, and then somethin’ changes
No matter how much, I can’t seem to - Chorus:
Tequila makes her clothes fall off (hey hey)
Tequila makes her clothes fall off (hey hey)
Red lipstick and high heels (hey hey)
And tequila makes her clothes fall off - Bridge:
I’ll never drink that stuff again
I just can’t go through it again
I drink too much and I go a little crazy
Maybe the tequila just made her undress - Chorus:
Tequila makes her clothes fall off (hey hey)
Tequila makes her clothes fall off (hey hey)
Red lipstick and high heels (hey hey)
And tequila makes her clothes fall off
Joe Nichols captures the seductive nature of the woman in the song, in a humorous and story-like melody. Tequila Seems to make everything better and although the woman in this song might probably never come back, the memory of her never leaves.
