Oh Carmen, I had too much tequila Between you and this Mexican moon I’m gonna fall El Paso lady, you’re driving me crazy In a language I don’t understand, you said it all
Dusty old Juarez on the old Rio Grande It’s sure is handy when you need a friend I don’t belong here, your dark eyes keep warning I’ll leave in the morning but for now please let me in
Oh Carmen, I had too much tequila Between you and this Mexican moon I’m gonna fall El Paso lady, you’re driving me crazy In a language I don’t understand, you said it all
Crossing over the border, stepping over the line Drunk on yesterdays wine and still feeling the flame The guitars keep playing a song that I’ve never heard Without saying a word, you keep calling out my name
Oh Carmen, I had too much tequila Between you and this Mexican moon I’m gonna fall El Paso lady, you’re driving me crazy In a language I don’t understand, you said it all
In a language I don’t understand, you said it all…
