Chorus:
Oh Carmen, I had too much tequila
Between you and this Mexican moon IÔÇÖm gonna fall
El Paso lady, youÔÇÖre driving me crazy
In a language I donÔÇÖt understand, you said it all.
Dusty old Juarez on the old Rio Grande
ItÔÇÖs sure is handy when you need a friend
I donÔÇÖt belong here, your dark eyes keep warning
IÔÇÖll leave in the morning but for now please let me in.
Chorus:
Oh Carmen, I had too much tequila
Between you and this Mexican moon IÔÇÖm gonna fall
El Paso lady, youÔÇÖre driving me crazy
In a language I donÔÇÖt understand, you said it all.
--- Instrumental ---
Crossing over the border, stepping over the line
Drunk on yesterdays wine and still feeling the flame
The guitars keep playing a song that IÔÇÖve never heard
Without saying a word, you keep calling out my name.
Chorus:
Oh Carmen, I had too much tequila
Between you and this Mexican moon IÔÇÖm gonna fall
El Paso lady, youÔÇÖre driving me crazy
In a language I donÔÇÖt understand, you said it all.
In a language I donÔÇÖt understand, you said it all...
