Carmelita lyrics

Artist  : Dwight Yoakam 
Song : Carmelita



 Send "Carmelita" Ringtone to your Cell 

 Carmelita



I hear mariachi static on my radio 

The tubes they glow in the dark

There with you in Ensenada

And I'm here in Echo Park.



Carmelita, hold me tighter

Yeah, 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 weston 

And I went down to meet my man

He hangs out down on Alvarado Street

At the Pioneer Chicken Stand.



Carmelita, hold me tighter

Yeah, I think I'm sinking down

And I'm all strung out on heroin

On the outskirts of town.



Carmelita, hold me tighter

Yeah, 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

Yeah, I think I'm sinking down

And I'm all strung out on heroin

On the outskirts of town.



Carmelita, hold me tighter

Yeah, I think I'm sinking down

And I'm all strung out on heroin

On the outskirts of town. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Oh Yeah...
