Here's t'other. I believe there are videos of each at YouTube.


TEQUILA SHEILA
(Davis / Silverstein)
Bobby Bare - 1980


CHORUS:
Pour me another tequila, Sheila.
Take off that red satin dress.
'Cause I crossed the border,
And I beat the dealer for all of that gold in Juarez.
I feel just like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila,
And I've got the pesos to spend,
So pour me another tequila, Sheila.
And lay down and love me again.

No I can't tell you about it.
Don't mind the gun by my bed,
But I feel kind'a naked without it,
And it eases the fears in my head.
I never have trusted in woman,
But Sheila I trust you tonight.
So pass me the salt and a lemon,
Bend down and blow out the light.

CHORUS

Sheila I'm hearin' your heartbeat,
But I'm hearing footsteps outside.
The courtyard is crawlin' with them Federales
And Sheila, there's no place to hide,
Now I don't know who could have tipped 'em,
Nobody knew it but you,
But I never have trusted the women,
Sheila here's what I'm going to do. Yeah!

CHORUS

Pour me another tequila,
I'm goin' ta 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 never trusted in women,
Sheila I trusted you tonight.
So pour me another tequila Sheila,
And I'll run for the border again.

Yeah! Pour me another tequilla, Sheila,
As I ride for the border tonight.
