From Mudcatter Seamus Kennedy's CD Live:

Juanita Suarez (Ed Dillon)

In Mexico City where the girls are so pretty
It's there that I first met Juanita Suarez.
As she led her burro thru' the streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Tacos and nachos for five pesos."

For five pesos, for five pesos, crying
"Tacos and nachos for five pesos."

She was a baker, an enchilada maker,
and so were her madre y padre before.
And they rode their burros thru' the streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Tacos and nachos for five pesos."

She went to a fiesta, took a permanent siesta
And that was the finita Juanita Suarez.
Now her ghost leads her burro thru' the streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Tacos and nachos for five pesos."


No one could possibly think our Seamus would sing a song with naughty words!
