Gringo Letra

Gringo, Southern California bound Gringo, take a stop and look around (come and lay your money down) Ain't no banana republic, gringo There's oil deep beneath the ground Two or three weeks in Mexico And you think you've seen it all Gringo, stars and stripes out in the cold Gringo, here's a hand you can take hold of (even though we're bought and sold) Drink Coca-Cola says the sign there America has made its mark (they said blood is thicker than water) Something tells me we really oughta Come out of the dark Night long saxophone in the barrio (the chicas will warm you) They can be persuasive gringo With stars in their eyes Spend a week in Acapulco No Esperanto needed there Lovers are like broken glass They're everywhere (the chicas will warm you) They can be persuasive gringo With stars in their eyes Gringo, think of this before you leave Gringo, the truth is easy to deceive (if truth you're ready to receive) Between the open road are your memories Tender hearted though they may be (they say blood is thicker than water) (they say all suffering comes to an end) (the common saying for friend is amigo) Gringo Red Cadillac at sunset slowing down For another look at that border town
