Sir Douglas Quintet - Nuevo Laredo lyrics
[Sir Douglas Quintet - Nuevo Laredo lyrics]
Way down there in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico
Spied a señorita there
Wind blows through her long black hair
As I cut a trail on the way to Boys' Town
Smoke and drink the night away
In a dimly-lit café
The longhairs were a novelty
To the people that were on the scene
We picked the blues 'til early dawn
Ev'rybody sing along
We had such a ball in Nuevo Laredo
Nuevo Laredo, Nuevo Laredo
I hear you callin' back to me
An' the time and all it's glory, alright
Cuando yo me fui de allí
Cuando yo, mi amor, te vi en Nuevo Laredo
Y siguiendo una ilusión
Que tenía en el corazón
Yo me fui de mi Nuevo Laredo, Ay!
Sittin' on an old bar stool
Lookin' like nobody's fool
Her heart was meant that she was going
To go home with only me
A great big cat about six-foot three
Demands that, "Guys, she's a goin' with me"
Then I cut a trail to Nuevo Laredo
(Goodbye, Nuevo Laredo)
Nuevo Laredo, Nuevo Laredo
I hear you callin' back to me
An' the time and all it's glory
Nuevo Laredo, Nuevo Laredo
Nuevo Laredo, Nuevo Laredo
