Chingo – David Gates

Chingo buy my groceries, Chingo pays my rent
Chingo brings me money, honey, when mine’s all spent
And all I do for Chingo is carry his valise
And try to keep away from the police

Chingo brings me woman. Woman smells of fish
So Chingo brings another which is almost every wish
And all I do for Chingo is keep the powder dry
Bring the wine when Chingo wants his high

Hey now Chingo, never forget me Chingo
Hey won’t you let me follow whenever you go out, be there too
Hey, hey Chingo, know you can trust me Chingo
They’ll never bust me Chingo, taking good care of you

Chingo buys me presents and Chingo knows my name
And if it weren’t for Chingo I’d have never tasted fame
And all I do for Chingo is serve my sentence well
While Chingo tours the country, this old roadies in his cell

Hey now Chingo, never forget me Chingo
Hey won’t you let me follow whenever you go out, be there too
Hey, hey Chingo, you know you can trust me Chingo
They’ll never bust me Chingo, taking good care of you

Hey, hey Chingo, never forget me Chingo
Hey won’t you let me follow whenever you go out, be there too
Yeah now Chingo, know you can trust me Chingo
They’ll never bust me Chingo, taking good care of you
