JOSE CUERVO
Words and music by Cynthia Jordan a.k.a. Cindy Jordan, incorrectly identified as Cathy Jordan on some albums. 1983.

Oh, it's Sunday morning and the sun is shining
In my eye that is open, and my head is spinning.
Was the life of the party; I can't stop grinning,
I had too much tequila last night.

CHORUS: Jose Cuervo, you are a friend of mine.
I like to drink you with a little salt and lime.
Did I kiss all the cowboys? Did I shoot out the lights?
Did I dance on the bar? Did I start any fights?

Now wait a minute. Things don't look too familiar.
And who is this cowboy who's sleepin' beside me?
Well, he's awful cute, but how'd I get his shirt on?
I had too much tequila last night. CHORUS

Oh, those little shooters, how I love to drink 'em down.
Come on, bartender, let's have another round.
Well, the music's playing and my spirits are high.
Tomorrow might be painful, but tonight we're gonna fly.

CHORUS: Jose Cuervo, you are a friend of mine.
I like to drink you with a little salt and lime.
Every time we get together, I sure have good time.
You're my friend, you're the best, mi amigo. FIRST CHORUS AGAIN
