Mi Amigo Lyrics
I got a friend,
Shows me all the good times,
Tells me I look better,
Chews me up and spits me out,
And then walks my ass home.
And sings a song,
When I'm gone, gone, gone.
A little friend,
Shoots me up and downtown,
When I can't get me drunk enough,
To bring me out the pieces,
Of a place I call home.
To sing a song,
'Til I'm gone, gone, gone.
Gone
Gone
Gone
I've got a friend,
Help me to get up again,
Showers me in bruises,
Tells me I got a big old dick,
And she wants my ass home.
To sing a song,
'Til I'm gone, gone, gone
You know son!
Gone

Shows me all the good times,
Tells me I look better,
Chews me up and spits me out,
And then walks my ass home.
And sings a song,
When I'm gone, gone, gone.
Shoots me up and downtown,
When I can't get me drunk enough,
To bring me out the pieces,
Of a place I call home.
To sing a song,
'Til I'm gone, gone, gone.
Gone

Help me to get up again,
Showers me in bruises,
Tells me I got a big old dick,
And she wants my ass home.
To sing a song,
'Til I'm gone, gone, gone
You know son!
Gone

Yes, this song is clearly about liquor and I'm pretty sure it's this little lady named Tequila (hence the Spanish title). Lines such as, "Tells me I look better" and "Tells me I got a big ol' dick" reinforce the confidence that liquid courage can give us all. Also, when Caleb says, "To pick me out the piece of a place I call home," I think he is saying that he can use alcohol as a way to help with being home sick. But as we all know, alcohol comes with it's negatives, too. "Chews me up and spits me out" can be looked at as the terrible hangover experiences the morning after. "Showers me in bruises...." Well I know I've awakened the next day to find soreness and bruises from falls, maybe even fights that I can't remember because of how GONE I was the night before.
Gonna chalk this one up to the booze. Clearly Caleb loves his liqour medication and this song is about alcohol and its effects and happieness. watching interveiws with caleb alcohol is always around and on teh tongue, and in no way am i hating on that! i jsut have a friend taht drinks too much and this song is along those lines---the friend is the drink
I definitely agree with you here, I was sure at first that it was booze or drugs, but I think he purposely made this kind of a double meaning so you can really see it either way. It could be booze, or it could be a person, specifically his fiancee?

I agree with you as well, First time I heard it I thought it was about booze, and I still do but it can be taken either way, a person, or booze...

On first listen i was convinced it was 'tells me i've got a big old dick, and she wants my asshole.' CALEB! The correct lyrics are lovely though.
haha i thought he said the same thing too

the guitar parts make this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song is about doing cocaine while boozin'. That's where the whole confidence boost comes from
Love this song. Probably my favorite on Come Around Sundown. Reminds me of all the countless great times of going out with friends and getting absolutely trashed and then making sure we all got each other home and settled. I believe the lyrics in the last verse are a bit off though. Instead of "bruises" I think its "boozes", instead of "dick" I think he says "beer", and then i believe its "and she walks my ass home."
Nope. Booklet says "dick" and "wants my ass home."

First verse is walks though.

i wish i could get a booklet of the correct lyrics, too bad i get all of my music online now. it was handy having the word in the cd case. i really like this song. i think my favoritehas to be pickup truck so far though.
i love this song, one of the best of CAS
i agree with joco10 i never thought about it that way only saw the obvious meaning but its true his friend could be his booze. think this could be my favourite of CAS. actually it is my favourite of CAS for now.
