Sometimes opposite people find a way to attract
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
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
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
