Growing up in a musical family, my musical roots run deep. My Dad, Ed King, was the lead vocalist and bass player for several Country bands that toured extensively throughout the United States and into Canada. Song writing has always been a passion for me and my father might argue that any talent I may have for it is genetically inherited from him.
“Tequila, Hot Texas Girls and Tailgates” was a fun song to write, wherein I used my creative imagination to pen a song totally devoted to summer fun, young carefree love and tequila.
My first experience with tequila was of the traditional shot glass, salt and lime variety but as the songs says, now I enjoy tequila best on the rocks.
As a happily married man, I’d be wise to use a little caution when talking about hot Texas girls, but needless to say they look pretty inviting clad in skin tight jeans, an accentuating tank top and a color co-ordinated Atwood cowboy hat.
While writing “Tequila, Hot Texas Girls and Tailgates” I was reminded of the Joe Diffie hit song “Pickup Man”. My favorite line in Joe’s song is “I met all my wives in traffic jams…”. I proudly own a ’96 GMC Sierra long box with over 150,000 miles on the clock that still looks and runs great; union built with pride in Flint Michigan. Will my 2013 import deliver that kind of service? Probably not.
Oh and by the way, the idea for “Tequila, Hot Texas Girls and Tailgates” came from my Wife and Daughters…thanks girls.
