frank's tavern

Singer:calexico

down in south tucscon

to frank's place i made it one night

my heart never intended a battle or fight

mario fed me my courage

and then i sat down

for i love the girl in the white dress

who danced the corrido

yo quiero mi vida she blinded my sight

blinded my sight

all spanish eyes were upon me

as i played the song

but they just couldn't read me

for i love the girl in the white dress

who danced the corrido

yo quiero mi vida she blinded my sight

blinded my sight

she danced and i waited

to catch one glimpse of her eye

her sister and vieja

already planned my demise

i'm getting wobbly

i'm getting too weak to stand

for i love the girl in the white dress

who danced the corrido

yo quiero mi vida she blinded my sight

blinded my sight

all spanish eyes were upon me

as i played the song

but they just couldn't read me
