Met a little senorita named margarita down in mexico

She taught me more about love in a day or two than i'll ever know

I had to go back across the rio grande

And leave that little girl behind

I can't believe how heavy she's laying on my mind



Oh tonight i need a margarita and i need it bad

I'm hoping that the tequila is gonna take me back

Give me the salt and the lime

So i can taste her and hold her one last time

Oh tonight i need a margarita and i need her bad



Those eyes and that smile they drove me while, i just couldn't resist

I couldn't get enough from our first touch to our last kiss

I never understood a single word she said

Oh but she left no doubt

When she spoke to me in the language of love

She turned my world inside out



Oh tonight i need a margarita and i need it bad

I'm hoping that the tequila is gonna take me back

Give me the salt and the lime

So i can taste her and hold her one last time

Oh tonight i need a margarita and i need her bad
