Intro 1

Verse 1
G G 
 
Well, I was sittin' in this beer joint
down in Houston, Texas
C C 
 
Was drinkin' Colorado Cool-Aid
and talkin' to some Mexicans
D D 
 
An' we was, what's that you say?
G G 
 
What's Colorado Cool-Aid?
G G 
 
Well, it's a can of Coors
brewed from a mountain stream
C C 
 
It'll set you head on fire
an' make your kidneys scream
D D 
 
Oh, it sure is fine
Yeah, we was havin' ourselves
G G 
 
one of them real good times

Verse 2
G G 
 
But you know every beer joint
that you've ever been in
C C 
 
Some big, mean drunk
who just ain't got no friend
D D 
 
Sure enough, he wants to fight
G G 
 
Yeah, he's gonna whip everything in sight
G G 
 
Well, he took him a big cold swallow of beer
And he walked over
C C 
 
and spit in my Mexican friend's ear
And sure enough that made
my buddy real mad
D D 
 
That's somethin' like he ain't never had
G G 
 
Well, Sir

Verse 3
G G 
 
He pulled out a big, long switch blade knife
Quick as a whistle he began to slice
C C 
 
That big mean drunk stood back,
his face full of tears
D D 
 
Lookin' down at the floor,
an' one of his ears
G G 
 
Ha, he cut that thing off
even with the sideburns
G G 
 
You might say the little Mexican fella,
C C 
 
he just didn't give a darn
But he was a gentleman about it
D D 
 
An' bent over and with a half way grin
G G 
 
Picked it up and handed it back to him

Verse 4
He said, "Now big man,"
G G 
 
"You get the urge to spit a little beer
Just open up your hand there
C C 
 
and spit it in your own ear
Won't be no trouble that way"
D D 
 
That's what I heard him say
G G 
 
And I said, "Barmaid, set us up a round
of that Colorado Cool-Aid
G G 
 
While you're up there, bring this big fella here,
a box of Bandaids"
C C 
 
Now let me tell you,
if you're ever ridin' down in south of Texas
And decide to stop
D D 
 
an' drink some Colorado Cool-Aid
An' maybe talk to some Mexicans
G G 
 
An' you get the urge to get a little tough
Better make damn sure

Verse 5
you got your knife proof ear-
G G 
 
(muff) Hey, ain't that right, big man?
C C 
 
I said ain't that right big man?
D D 
 
Ah, hell he can't hear,
not on this side anyway, he ain't got no ear
G G 
 
Hey barmaid,
bring us all a big, tall glass
G G 
 
of that Colorado Cool-Aid
How about it?
C C 
 
How you doin', big man?
D D 
 
Still got your ear there in your hand
G G 
 
Oh, yeah
