We're going down to Tampico for a little trauma right now
ย
I must look a mess I must admit
But I have been travelling quite a bit
South of the border
Where the law and order
Is kept by Federales who just grin
Tell you they just want to be your friend
Tell you they just want to be your friend
ย
I left for Tampico last July
I jumped off that boat I almost died
There to greet us
Were pretty senoritas (good God)
I swore that I would not go home then
All those lovely ladies were my friends
Whoa, those sweet chiquitas they don't pretend
Como esta, senorita
ย
That is all I really want to say
I was thrown out of Atlanta yesterday
Oh, you see I was
Drinkin' double
Causin' lots of trouble
When the man looked in the window of the bar and he grinned
He said, "If you come back we may not be your friend"
"I don't want to see your ass 'round here again"
Looks like them werewovles from Buckhead again (awoooo)
ย
Thank you, alright!
Woo
Yeah, the party's not over (alright)
ย
Alright
Yeah
Oh, these are going to be a nice tw-two more days we got here, thank you, Miami, I mean, uh
ย
Yeah, we decided to try to accomplish this, man, as a recording, we figured, uh, there's no two better places to do it than right here in Gusman Hall and up in the Fox Theater in Atlanta, Georgia
That's where you all started us out
