๐ Lyrics
Well, the sun went down on that border town
Just as I rolled in
Found a small cantina, my throat was as dry
As it had ever been
Tequila twist, salt on my wrist
Lay back and take it slow
Watchin' Graciella sing and dance
Down in Old Nueva Laredo
She'd sing
"Stars fall down from the sky in Nueva Laredo
Set the night on fire whenever I dance for the amorous gringo
Oh, he brings to us his great love, this prosperous Americano
I think maybe this Yankee will spend some time down in Old Nueva Laredo"
I was mesmerized by her flashing eyes
As she danced in the night
I could feel her teasing and taunting me
In the flickering candlelight
But was that her brother or maybe her lover
Who watched while the liquor flowed?
And the night caught fire
Down in Old Nueva Laredo
Singin'
"Stars fall down from the sky in Nueva Laredo
Set the night on fire whenever I dance for the amorous gringo
Oh, he brings to us his great love, this prosperous Americano
I think maybe this Yankee will spend some time down in Old Nueva Laredo"
I woke up next afternoon, it was still too soon
Lord, my head was sore
I knew I was in a strange hotel
Sleepin' on the floor
All my money was gone
I felt like I'd been run over by a Texas tornado
So all day long, I just lay low
Down in Old Nueva Laredo
Singin'
"Stars fall down from the sky in Nueva Laredo
Set the night on fire whenever I dance for the amorous gringo
Whoa, he brings to us his great love, this prosperous Americano
I think maybe this Yankee will spend some time down in Old Nueva Laredo"
Nueva Laredo
Down in Old Nueva Laredo
Oh, Nueva Laredo
Down in Old Nueva Laredo
Nueva Laredo
Just as I rolled in
Found a small cantina, my throat was as dry
As it had ever been
Tequila twist, salt on my wrist
Lay back and take it slow
Watchin' Graciella sing and dance
Down in Old Nueva Laredo
She'd sing
"Stars fall down from the sky in Nueva Laredo
Set the night on fire whenever I dance for the amorous gringo
Oh, he brings to us his great love, this prosperous Americano
I think maybe this Yankee will spend some time down in Old Nueva Laredo"
I was mesmerized by her flashing eyes
As she danced in the night
I could feel her teasing and taunting me
In the flickering candlelight
But was that her brother or maybe her lover
Who watched while the liquor flowed?
And the night caught fire
Down in Old Nueva Laredo
Singin'
"Stars fall down from the sky in Nueva Laredo
Set the night on fire whenever I dance for the amorous gringo
Oh, he brings to us his great love, this prosperous Americano
