Karaoke Track: Numbers (With Background Vocals) by Bobby Bare (Dancing Frog Karaoke) - Karaoke Nerds

I was sittin' in Friday's
suckin' on a glass of wine

When in walked this chick
who almost struck me blind

Had wet blue eyes and her
legs were long and fine

On a scale of one to ten,
I'd give her a nine.

Now on my scale there ain't
no ten's, you know

Nine is about as far as
any chick can go

So I flashed her a smile
but she didn't even look at me
So for brains and
good judgement
I'd give her a three.

I said, Hey sweet thing
you look like a possible eight
You and me could, uh! make

eighteen,
if your head's on straight.

She looked up and down
my perfect frame
And said these words that
burned into my perfect brain.

She said, well
another one of those
macho-matician men

Kind who grade all women
on scales of one to ten

And while you give me an
eight, well that's a
generous thing to do
Now, let's just see
just how much I give you.

She said you comin' on to me
with that phony numbers jive
Your style makes me smile
I give it a five

When you walked up
I noticed that suit of yours
It's last year's double-knit

frayed-cuffs,
give it a four.

Ah that must be your car
parked out on the curb
That sixty-nine
homemade convertible
a three and a third

g

Now as for that build
I guess you're less than five
Except for your pot belly

I'd give that a
ten for size.

That wine you're pourin'
might be fine to you.
But I'm used to

fine champagne
I give it a two

It's hard to tell what your
flashin' smile is worth
I give it a six,

you could use some
dental work.

But it's your struttin'
rooster act

that really makes me
laugh.

It may be
a ten to these country hens

but to me
a three and a half

And there really ain't much
to add
once the subtractin's done.
And since there ain't no zeroes
I give you a one!

And she walked out,
while up and down the line
the whole bar was laughin',
said' Bare, what happened

to your nine

Nine says I, Hell,
soon as she started to talk
I knew

she didn't have no class
I barely gave her a two.

Yeah! No matter how good
they look at first,

there's flaws
in all of them

That's a why on a scale of

ten to one, friend,
there ain't no tens.
