Santa Fe Cantina

(albüm: Tonight We Ride - 1986)

I'm a stranger in this city
And I'm feeling pretty low
And whenever I get this feeling
I know where I'm bound to go

It's down in the shopping mall
And it looks real nice inside
When I feel like a lonesome cowboy
It's a pretty good place to hide

Santa Fe Cantina
I always hate to leave
Santa Fe Cantina
If even make believe

When you walk in through the front door
Right away you hear a Mexican dance
They got a fountain and a cactus
And a whole lot of hanging plants

They got a waitress named Carmelita
She'll always talk to you awhile
She makes a pretty mean margarita
And she serves it with a smile

Santa Fe Cantina
I always hate to leave
Santa Fe Cantina
If even make believe

When it's late and I've had a few
And I'm seeing through a mist
I remember the Rio Grande and the stars and a kiss

It's a long way back to New Mexico
But I think I'm gonna be alright
I've got Mexican beer and a good imagination tonight

Santa Fe Cantina
I always hate to leave
Santa Fe Cantina
If even make believe

Santa Fe Cantina
I always hate to leave
Santa Fe Cantina
If even make believe
