|
I hear mariachi static on my radio |
|
And the tubes they glow in the dark |
|
And I'm there with you in Ensenada |
|
And I'm here in Echo Park |
|
Carmelita, hold me tighter |
|
I think I'm sinking down |
|
And I'm all strung out on heroin |
|
On the outskirts of town |
|
Well I pawned my Smith and Wesson |
|
And I went to meet my man |
|
He hangs out down on Alvarado Street |
|
At the Pioneer Chicken stand |
|
Carmelita, hold me tighter |
|
I think I'm sinking down |
|
And I'm all strung out on heroin |
|
On the outskirts of town |
|
Well I'm sittin' here playing solitaire |
|
With my pearl handled deck |
|
The county won't give me no more methadone |
|
And they cut off your welfare check |
|
Carmelita, hold me tighter |
|
I think I'm sinking down |
|
And I'm all strung out on heroin |
|
On the outskirts of town |
|
Carmelita, hold me tighter |
|
I think I'm sinking down |
|
And I'm all strung out on heroin |
|
On the outskirts of town |
