She Never Spoke Spanish to Me
Met her in old mexicoShe was laughing sad and youngIn a smokey room no-one could seeAll the poets they agreedSpanish is a loving tongue butShe never spoke spanish to meShe was born in MontereyAnd all the Christmas songs were sungThe padre knew what she'd grow up to beSaints and sinners all agreeSpanish is a loving songBut she never spoke Spanish to meRefrain:Like a lion screamin in the jungleOShe neverShe spoke to all the shadows in her bungalowBut she never spoke Spanish to me.She said "If you're from Texas,son,Where's your boots and where's your gun?"I smiled and said " I got guns no-one can see!"She laughed at that and both agreedSpanish is a loving tongue butShe never spoke Spanish to me.I left her in old Mexico....
