Lyrics:
I was sittin' in a tavern
Down by the Rio Grande
Drinkin’ down tequila
Listenin' to the band
Thinkin' 'bout some silly thing
That made us disagree
When a South Texas beauty
Made a move on me
She was a ten and that’s on a
Scale of one to eight
Looked so good
I did a double take
Then thought of all the trouble I could
Get myself into
She might have been a ten but that’s
Nowhere close to you
Well she leaned right up against me
With a come-on in her eyes
Said where’ve you been hidin’ cowboy
Dance with me tonight
And maybe for a second I thought
What harm would it do
But the image of you darlin' kept me
Anchored to that stool
Chorus
Bridge:
Baby you’ve got me hooked
On more than your good looks
When you add it all up
I’m totally in love
Final Chorus
But she was just a ten
On a scale of one to eight
But we’ve got a history
A whole lot more at stake
Thought makin’ up would be
The right thing to do
So I left her in Laredo
‘Cause that's nowhere close to you
