Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off

Different drinks can have drastically different effects on people, and in this song, a girl is prone to erratic behavior when she drinks tequila. Whenever she does, she comes home wearing less than she left with, although other alcoholic beverages - Jello shots, rum punch and champagne, for example - don't seem to affect her.

The Nashville songwriters Gary Hannan and John Wiggins wrote this song. When Songfacts spoke with Joe Nichols, he explained: "They wrote it on a cocktail napkin as they were getting drunk."

Nichols told Songfacts that the second time was the charm when it came to recording this song. "We cut that song twice," he said. "The first time we cut it, I did not feel it. It felt flat to me. I loved the playful nature of the song, but when we cut it the first time, the track did not live up to what the lyric could be. So we went back and recut it sloppier, and the sloppier, angry guitars made it just right."
