Backstory:

I co-wrote the lyrics to this song and did the melody. We have another version that does not have the pause in the chorus after "And I loved her butt...kickin' Margarita's.                                                                                                                                                                                     

Lyrics:

                                                  
Hook Line and Tequila

There I was floatin' in my boat
Twin seater with a Mercury 2 stroke
Nothin' bitin', but it sure beat work
Just needed somethin' to quench my thirst

Docked by the neon flashin' on the beach
Strolled to the bar and took a seat
In a blink I forgot about fishin'
Said, "girl I'll have whatever you're mixin'"

Chorus
I saw her face
Aw, I took the bait 
Like a fish floppin' out on the lake
And I loved her butt kickin' margarita's
And I fell, oh yes I fell
Hook line and tequila

Think I had three, mighta been 10
She'd pour, I'd drink then she'd pour again
We talked marriage, at least I did
Proposed three times and she'd just grin

When the tequila was almost gone
She closed the bar and took me home
Felt like my brain went through a blender
But, one thing I do remember...

Chorus
       	
        Hitched a ride to that place the next day
       	Stopped in for a burger and a coke
       	She said, "I'm off at 5 and I love fishin'"
       	I said, "got an extra seat in my boat"  

Chorus          

Oh, yes I fell…oh I fell
Hook line and tequila…yeah, hook line and tequila
Man, that girl can fish
