Frank's Tavern - Calexico

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
