MEXICAN GIRL

Juanita came to me last night, and she cried over and over
Ooh, Daddy, I love you, you know, and I think it's the moonlight.

She looked so fine, well she looked alright, and she moaned
Ooh, Daddy, move over
Oh, Baby, you know what I like and I think it's the moonlight

Made in Mexico, schooled in France, ooh la lovin' she needed no teachin'
Oh man I can say international ways I believe in.

Mexican girl, don't leave me alone
I got a heart as big as a stone
And I need you, believe me, to be here and love me tonight
Mexican girl, I want you to stay
You know my heart is longing to say
That as long as I live I will always remember the one My Mexican girl

Her skin was soft as the velvet sky and her hair it shone in the moonlight
And as the music did play, well the night turned to day,
and I held her tight.

Then she looked at me with her dark brown eyes, and she
whispered Hasta La Vista
Well, I don't know what that means,
but it sounded so good so I kissed her

Mexican girl, don't leave me alone
I got a heart as big as a stone
And I need you, believe me, to be here and love me tonight
Mexican girl, I want you to stay
You know my heart is longing to say
That as long as I live I will always remember the one
that I called

My Mexican girl, don't leave me alone
I got a heart as big as a stone
And I need you, believe me, to be here and love me tonight

Mexican girl, I want you to stay
You know my heart is longing to say
That as long as I live I will always remember the one
that I called
My Mexican girl.
