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 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 But I couldn't learn when to stop or when to run from the rain I was tequila and she was champagne Oh, I was tequila and she was champagne --- I Was Tequila - Alan Jackson
