Ten Rounds With Jose Cuervo

I walked in, the band just stunk

The singer couldn't carry a tune in a bucket

Was on a mission to drown her memory, but

I thought, no way with all this raucous

(chorus)

But after one round with Jose Cuervo

I caught my boots tapping 'long with the beat

And after two rounds with Jose Cuervo

That band was sounding pretty darn good to me

Then some stranger asked me to dance

And I revealed to her my two left feet

Said "Don't get me wrong, I'm glad you asked

But tonight's about me and an old memory . . ."

(chorus)

Then after three rounds with Jose Cuervo

I let her lead me out on the floor

And after four rounds with Jose Cuervo

I was showing off moves never seen before

(Bridge)

Well, round five or round six

I forgot what I came to forget

And after round seven . . . or was it eight?

I bought a round for the whole damn place

(chorus)

And after nine rounds with Jose Cuervo

They were countin' me out, and I was about to give in

And after ten rounds with Jose Cuervo

I lost count and started counting again

(tag)

One round with Jose Cuervo

Two rounds with Jose Cuervo

Three rounds with Jose Cuervo . . .
