DON’ T BLAME IT ON ME (Featuring: Jolina Carl)

You can blame it on Mexico, blame it on Tequila Blame it on the worm in mescal You can blame on Tecate, or ice cold Corona Or blame it on Amanda's gals
A drunken weekend, down on the border We were wild and free You can blame it on Mexico, blame it on the water Just don't blame it on me
Remember it was YOU, with that bright idea Head south on a little road trip Without a plan, or a map in our hands A way to test our friendship
Maybe get a tattoo, to remind me of you A simple display of our youth With no idea, or an ounce of fear We'd soon discover the truth
You can blame it on Mexico, blame it on Tequila Blame it on the worm in mescal You can blame on Corona or that pretty senorita Who's dress you wore down the aisle
That little chapel and 50 peso bribe Padre said "get down on your knees" You can blame it on Mexico, or blame it on the water Just don't blame it on me
Twenty years later, we're sitting on the beach Soaking up the Mexican sun Corona's ice cold and the Tequila's still gold We laugh, at all we've done
I look at my tattoo, it reminds me of you That night we first made love You're still married to me and its easy to see We're a match made in heaven above
But, you still blame it on Mexico, blame it on Tequila You blame it on the worm in mescal I blame it on the heat, cause I still don't remember Ever taking those vows
Or that rundown hotel, where you tried to propose You fell, getting down on one knee You can blame it on Mexico, or blame it on the water Just don't blame it on me
