Lyrics

Dorothy is a young girl from Boise Idaho
I met her in a strip club near the gulf of Mexico
I was mixing cocktails just watching from the bar
everybody knew one day our dorothy would be a star
it's more than just her beauty it's more than meets the eye
she loves to drink tequila and she's always getting high
Dorothy McGuire Dorothy McGuire

other girls are jealous cuse they know they can't compete
all the guys are in love with her all including me
an actress or a lawyer are things that she could be
but she graduates in May she's gonna get her PHD
Dorothy McGuire Dorothy McGuire

I ran into Dorothy just the other day
she got herself a practice near the San Francisco Bay
as beautiful as always she doesn't seem to age
we talked about the good times in our younger days
now we made it thru the bullshit and life keeps moving on
so we drank up her tequila and we did it all night long
Dorothy McGuire Dorothy McGuire
