Daycare Swindlers El Coliche
She said, "We can't stay here Micky
I'm afraid for you. You know there's been talk around town
Somebody robbed El Coliche out of about a hundred grand
And his boys are passing 'round a picture of a cool drink of water
That sure looks a lot like you
Either you've got a twin brother
Or you've got some explaining to do..."
[Chorus]
Outside Laredo
There's mariachi pumping through the radio
It goes on and on and on and on and on and on, all summer long
Inside the living room
There's a girl standing there wearing nothing but a bad tattoo
Say'n, "Trying to reach you
Is just like shootin' a bottle rocket at the moon"
He said, "Maria
You don't understand what you mean to me
And aren't you tired of living 'round here
Just trying to make ends meet?
I saw this deal going down
So when the man turned around I grabbed his bags, and I ran
I never thought this whole damn thing
Would get so far out of hand..."
[Chorus]
Outside Laredo
There's mariachi pumping through the radio
It goes on and on and on and on and on and on, all summer long
Inside the living room
There's a girl standing there wearing nothing but a bad tattoo
Say'n, "Trying to reach you
Is just like shootin' a bottle rocket at the moon"
Let summer come...
She said, "We can't stay here
I can the feel the heat
And I know that it won't be long
We need to get away Micky
From this hot summer sun
Maybe we can take that money and head up north
Find a place to finally settle down"
She says she needs a cool drink of water
Before she leaves this town
[Chorus]
Outside Laredo
There's mariachi pumping through the radio
It goes on and on and on and on and on and on, let summer come (let summer come)
Inside the living room
There's a girl standing there wearing nothing but a bad tattoo
Say'n, "Trying to reach you
Is just like shootin' a bottle rocket at the moon"
Let summer come...
