[Verse 1] Smoke in the air and tequila glance Worn out boots a slow dance stance Dim lights flicker on his jagged face A whispered drawl sets my heart to race [Chorus] In the heat south of the border Where the whiskey runs like water He said "Darlin' Wanna make some noise?" Danger wrapped up in a southern boy [Verse 2] Worn leather jacket clings to his soul Eyes like fire swallowing me whole He leans on the bar tales spill like wine Says "Stick with me you'll be just fine" [Chorus] In the heat south of the border Where the whiskey runs like water He said "Darlin' Wanna make some noise?" Danger wrapped up in a southern boy [Bridge] Honky-tonk bells and a wowowa roar Flames in my chest can’t ask for more Can’t tell if it's love or just a fight In his crooked smile shines the night [Verse 3] Sawdust floor my boots tap in tune Mexico midnight under the pale moon He says "Let’s vanish like smoke rings in air" I can’t resist his electric snare
