warren zevon - carmelita (live, wmmr-fm) lyrics
[intro]
alright, we’d like to do another song about the dolce beat of southern california
[verse 1]
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 sinkin’ down
and i’m all strung out on heroin
on the outskirts of town
[verse 2]
where i’m sittin’ here playin’ solitaire
with my pearl_handled deck
the county won’t give me no more methadone
and they cut off your welfare check
[chorus]
carmelita, hold me tighter
i think i’m sinkin’ down
and i’m all strung out on heroin
on the outskirts of town
ooh_ooh_ooh
[instrumental break]
[interlude]
smell those quesadillas
and quavers
[verse 3]
i p_wned my smith corona
and i went to meet my man
he hangs out down on alvarado street
by the pioneer chicken stand
[chorus]
carmelita, hold me tighter
i think i’m sinkin’ down
and i’m all strung out on heroin
on the outskirts of town
carmelita, hold me tighter
i think i’m sinkin’ down
and i’m all strung out on heroin
on the outskirts of town
[outro]
now it’s time to get down rodney, funky, salsa and doom
disco doom
