Was down in Mexico where I had roamed
Not too much Spanish by then had I known
I found myself in a terrible mess
There were ten bad banditos, one gringo to mess
I was surrounded no where could I run
They had Los Pistols and I had no gun
I searched my memory for something to say
I had to think quick this could be my last day
Una mas cerveza
Una mas cerveza
Una mas cerveza
Was all I could say
Una mas cerveza
Una mas cerveza
Una mas cerveza
Just let me go my way
I saw a cantina so I went inside
I found a dark corner a good place to hide
I was no safer when I looked around
Not una mas gringo was there to be found
A small crowd had gathered around to my chair
"Eduardo Dormito" they pointed and stared
They gave me a guitar but what could I say
Oh yes I remember that mexican phrase
Una mas cerveza
Una mas cerveza
Una mas cerveza
Was all I could say
Una mas cerveza
Una mas cerveza
Una mas cerveza
Just let me go my way
