Nifty song of the day
Mar. 13th, 2003 09:12 amSo, while
shadesong and I were playing various nifty songs for
thegreyman last night, I reconnected to one of my all time favorite artists, Trish Murphy. She's an Austin singer-songwriter who plays a mean guitar and has a nice whiskey-soaked voice. One of my favorite songs, Scorpio Tequilla, is available for a free download from her website. Lyrics are below the tag.
Scorpio Tequila, by Trish Murphy.
Wish I was a Scorpio like my sister
I'm the nice girl, she's the pistol,
She got all the boys, I missed all the fun
I'm still a good girl, all I need is the gun
I've seen around town, yeah, I've seen you before
I've seen you in my dreams, and I wanna see you more.
I could stand dreamin' my life away
I could take a shot
You could take my breath away
Chorus:
Scorpio Tequila, can you hear my heart beat?
Little chaser, I'll chase you down the street.
Spin the bottle, spin it out of control.
I'm not afraid of what I'm gonna do, when I'm alone with you.
I read it in the paper -- it's my lucky day
The stars are in my favor that you'll come my way.
When the full moon's in Scorpio
Jupiter girls are gonna let it go.
Gonna be different than I was back then,
Throw my head back, taste the salt of your skin
Do all the things I'm too chicken to do
I wanna do it with you
I wanna do it with you.
Chorus
Would you throw me down
Could you get me in bed.
Take me out of this town.
Get me out of my head.
Should I kiss your neck
Could I give you a squeeze
I'm a nervous wreck,
Would ya pass the salt please?
Chorus
