Lyrics Frank's Tavern - Calexico

Frank's Tavern

Down in south Tucscon
To Frank’s Place I made it one night
My heart never intended a battle or fight
Mario fed me my courage
And then I sat down
For I love the girl in the white dress
Who danced the corrido
Yo quiero mi vida she blinded my sight
Blinded my sight
All spanish eyes were upon me
As I played the song
But they just couldn’t read me
For I love the girl in the white dress
Who danced the corrido
Yo quiero mi vida she blinded my sight
Blinded my sight
She danced and I waited
To catch one glimpse of her eye
Her sister and vieja
Already planned my demise
I’m getting wobbly
I’m getting too weak to stand
For I love the girl in the white dress
Who danced the corrido
Yo quiero mi vida she blinded my sight
Blinded my sight
All spanish eyes were upon me
As I played the song
But they just couldn’t read me
