Well the table is set
the candles are lit
And there's the knock on the door
Boy She's looking pretty
all dressed up
Now who could have
wished for more
Yes we wined and
dined and all was fine
Knowing that she was game
But' then I went and really
spoiled it all
By filling up my glass again
For one drink too many took
the smile right off of her face
One lousy drink too many took
the girl right out of my place
Well I tried to talk her out
of going home
But instead I fell flat
on the floor
And all I remember is
a great big bang
I guess she must have
slammed the door
Well a couple of days
and a hangover later
She gave me one more chance
But only if I took her to
CHEZ MAXIM
For a fancy dinner and dance
So we came to seek
cheek to cheek
That moment we'd known before
But then I went and
did it all again
By filling up my glass once more
For one drink too many took
the smile right off of her face
One lousy drink too many took
the girl right out of that place
Well I tried to talk her out
of going home
But instead I fell flat
on the floor
And all I remember is a
cha cha cha'
With the bouncers at the door
Yes we came to seek
cheek to cheek
That moment we'd known before
But then I went and
did it all again
By filling up my glass once more
For one drink too many took
the smile right off of her face
One lousy drink too many took
the girl right out of that place
Yes I tried to talk her out
of going home
But instead I fell flat
on the floor
I guess I need to work it out
again like keeping
myself ashore
