"José Cuervo" is a song written and originally recorded by Cindy Jordan in 1981. It was released as a single by American country music artist Shelly West in February 1983 to commercial success.
After a successful duet pairing with David Frizzell for three years, Shelly West went on her own to establish herself as a solo artist. Since her mother was country music singer, Dottie West, success came easily with the release of this song in 1983. The song hit No. 1 on the Country charts and was West's second (and last) No. 1 since 1981's duet with David Frizzell, "You're the Reason God Made Oklahoma". The song provided a sales boost for the Jose Cuervo tequila company and brought even more success to West. The song was released on her first solo album, West by West.
