linda ronstadt – carmelita lyrics
written by warren zevon
© 1972 warner-tamerlane publishing corp & darkroom music (bmi)
i hear mariachi static on my radio
and the tubes they glow in the dark
and i’m there with you in ensenada
and i’m here in echo park
carmelita, hold me tighter
i think i’m sinking down
and i’m all strung out on heroin
on the outskirts of town
well i p-wned my smith and wesson
and i went to meet my man
he hangs out down on alvarado street
at the pioneer chicken stand
carmelita, hold me tighter
i think i’m sinking down
and i’m all strung out on heroin
on the outskirts of town
well i’m sittin’ here playing solitaire
with my pearl handled deck
the county won’t give me no more methadone
and they cut off your welfare check
carmelita, hold me tighter
i think i’m sinking down
and i’m all strung out on heroin
on the outskirts of town
carmelita, hold me tighter
i think i’m sinking down
and i’m all strung out on heroin
on the outskirts of town
