You never met a sweeter child She wouldn't hurt a fly She calls her mama every morning Talks to Jesus every night She said I never been across any borders So we drove down to Mexico In a bikini with a drink in her hand I saw a side to her that I've never known She's got a stiff left hook She's got a mouth on her too She knows those words no preacher mans ever heard Bring on the salt and lime We'll have a real good time Me and my tequila mockingbird My tequila mockingbird I never knew she could dance like that She could make a grown man blush Let's find that ocean and lose these clothes She said I got a thirst A thirst for love Yeah She's got a stiff left hook She's got a mouth on her too She knows those words no preacher mans ever heard Bring on the salt and lime We'll have a real good time Me and my tequila mockingbird My tequila mockingbird I like it when she's behaving badly She says bring it on And I say gladly Out of the shadows like old Boo Radley Here she comes Yeah She's got a stiff left hook She's got a mouth on her too She knows those words no preacher mans ever heard Bring on the salt and lime We'll have a real good time Me and my tequila mockingbird Oh my tequila mockingbird Yes my tequila Oh my tequila mockingbird
