Carmelita

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I hear Mariachi static on my radio And the tubes they glow in the dark And I'm there with her in Ensenada And I'm here in Echo Park [Chorus] 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 They cut off your welfare check [Chorus] Well, I pawned my Smith-Corona And I went to meet my man He hangs out down on Alvarado Street By the Pioneer chicken stand [Chorus: x2]
