Dirty Chateau |
| I had a maid she used to come in days |
| Made the bed and mopped the floor |
| She didn’t like my rowdy ways |
| And she ain’t coming back no more |
| You waste all your precious time |
| Italian movies and Portuguese wine |
| Little round bottles all in a row |
| You’re an unclean man in a dirty chateau |
| Dirty chateau it’s long and it’s tall |
| Stick around we’ll have a ball |
| You’lI get stuck and before you know |
| You’ll be dancing around you’re feeling all right |
| In my dirty chateau |
| She started life in the lettuce fields |
| Up in Salinas where the farm work is done |
| You go streaking by in your automobiles |
| You don’t even know where your lettuce comes from |
| The short handled hoe it scarred my hands |
| Tell me why do they love it so |
| It broke mama down daddy too |
| Now I work for you in your dirty chateau |
| My friends are coming and they’d like to hear |
| A real sad Mexican song or two |
| They been drinking and they don’t care |
| Just what you been goin' through |
| How bout Paloma Sin Nido |
| Pa Que Me Sirve la Vida |
| What about Pobre del Pobre |
| Also Lamento de un Prisionero |
| She used to call me borracho y perdido |
| Said I was loco y jodido |
| Buena para nada |
| Nunca quiero ver tu cara |
| But she’s gone in the world somewhere |
| Turlock somewhere, Stockton somewhere |
| Salinas somewhere, Los Angeles somewhere, I just don’t know… |
