Tijuana Jail Song

I fell in love, in Old Mexico
It was the kind of love that wouldn't let go
If you tried, and boy did ever
But the more I strained
The more she grew clever
Que lastima, Que puedo aser

Cupid's arrow struck me in the Cantina
While I was drinking con mi bonita
She's the one, that can squeeze ping pong balls
Mujer paquita yes jovencita pero que lastima
No mi tengo muy mucho dinero
Que lastima, Que puedo aser

Thank God, mi amigo,
is pissing in el bano and sparking up a leno
He has, better Spanish,
well better than me and soon you'll see
my love is true

Drink after drink, I couldn't shake her stare
She made me forget just why I even cared
Cuz she needed a dad, and I guess the shoe fit
Cuz I wanted a mother with a first aid kit
Que lastima, Que puedo aser
Que lastima, Que puedo aser

The next thing I know came a shoulder tap
Erah dos banditos with a federales badge
Yo dije chinga tu madre, pinche puto gringo carvron
I smiled and said gracias amigo,
playing dumb I flashed him my seiko
He punched me out and called me Richard Grieko
Que lastima, Que puedo aser

Thank God, mi amigo, is pissing in el bano
and sparking up a leno
He has, better Spanish, well better than me
and soon you'll see
my love is true

    que puedo 'hacer'

    And, throughout, maybe the rudimentary spanish is apt, when considering the final stanza and the tone, as a whole.

    yep. needs guitar

    Lovable, and squishy as well.....

    Tee-hee, I loved this poem/song! It was very rythmical, of course it would be, considering it is a song. Also, I wish I knew what the spanish meant, it happens to be one of the few languages I don't speak....Sadly, but I am trying to learn. Good job!
