Mendoza

(album: Evildoers Beware! - 1997)

Mendoza!

I was hanging with my friends and they said I looked peaked
I said I met a girl and she's making me freaked
Like no other girl that I've known before
She's driving me wild, knocks me flat on the floor
Yeah she stole my heart with a butter knife
And I can't get away even if I try
Mendoza, Mendoza, why can't you see?
That you're the only girl, you're the girl for me

Mendoza
You got me burning now
You got me reaching out
And I don't know how
That I'll make it without you

You got me hanging by a string and tied up in chains
Girl you gotta set me free cause you're holding the reigns
You got me living in the shadow of your mountain of love
Girl you gotta help me up send a rope from above
Cause there is only one girl who can rock my world
Just one little chick and I know that girl
Like a key to a lock, things can never be the same
Yeah I know that girl, yeah I know her name...

Mendoza
You got me burning now
You got me reaching out
And I don't know how
That I'll make it without you

She took a rusty stiletto and she slaughtered my heart
Wrapped her finger 'round my mind, that was only the start
Dumped cement in my stomach just to even the score
And when she was done I only asked for more, more, more!
Cause you're too much woman for a man like me
And my love grows faster than a growing weed
Mendoza, Mendoza, why can't you see
That you're the only girl, you're the girl for me

Mendoza
You got me burning now
You got me reaching out
And I don't know how
That I'll make it without you
