I hear Mariachi music on the radio
And the tubes they glow in the dark
And I'm there with her 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'm sittin' here playing solitaire
With my red pearl deck
The county won't send me more methadone
And cut off your welfare check
Oh 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 pawned my Smith & Wesson
And I went to see the man
He hangs out down on Alvarado Street
By the Pioneer chicken stand
Oh Carmelita, hold me tighter
I think I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town
Oh Carmelita
Hold me tighter
I think I'm sinking down
And I'm all strung out on heroin
On the outskirts of town
