Carmelita lyrics

Artist  : Rachel Stamp 
Song : Carmelita



 Send "Carmelita" Ringtone to your Cell 

 
I hear mariachi static on my radio 

And the tubes they glow in the dark 

And I'm there with her in Encenada 

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 



I pawned my Smith-Corona 

And I went to meet my man 

He hangs out down on Alvarado Street 

By 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 sitting here playing solitaire 

With my pearl-handled deck 

This 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
