The song is a mid-tempo number in which the narrator is a person counseling a man in a tavern, who is regarding a frequent female patron, sitting by herself at a table ("Tonight, she's only sippin' white wine"). It is implied or assumed that she is typically much more open and outgoing when any other type of alcohol is consumed ("She's friendly and fun-lovin' most of the time."), except for "straight tequila"; this will have the effect of making the woman think about her ex-lover and cause her to become upset and agitated ("She'll start thinkin' about him, and she's ready to fight").
