Terry Allen - Cantina Carlotta lyrics

Well I drove down to El Paso

On my business

Yeah I was just another executive

Workin for the bank

But when I 'crossed that border line

I dropped my business

And I wound up for three days

In the Juarez tank

Chorus:

Cantina Carlotta lady

After I met you

Well I knew that I was ready

To start something new

So I dropped my Brook Brothers suit

And all my fancy painted ties

ahhhh Just for one night with Carlotta

and her painted eyeee ... yi ... yi抯

And when I got out of jail

I went lookin for Carlotta

Yeah I needed some more of that sweet

Affectionada

But at the cantina they told me

She抯 gone to Guadalajara

And when I asked it she'd be back

They just said ... d'nada

ChorusYeah one night with Carlotta

Ahhh uno noches Carlotta

And her painted eyeee...yi ... eeeeeeeee

yi yi yi yi yi

yi yi,yi yi yi, etc.
