The El Burro Song

(álbum: El Mirador - 2022)

My love has fallen and can't get up
Still hung-over and won't wake up
I try to move her, but her heart won't budge
Asleep on the ballroom floor with the sawdust

I keep thinking of Sandra's lips
If it ain't her lips then it's her horchata kiss
I walk in the café, she greets me like this
"Sit down, sit down, take a load off your chest"

My love's still lying on the barroom floor
I try to wake her, but she just ignores
The whole band's playing and dancing all around
Her heart like a radio with the sound turned down

Oh, my friend Jaime's drinking and playing guitarrón
The whole joint is jumping, but my love's lying down
A fight breaks out when they start playing the El Burro Song
Now Jaime's jaw is busted and I'm still alone
Jaime's jaw is busted and I'm still alone
