What Am I Doing Hanging 'Round?

(альбом: Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones Ltd. - 1967)

Just a loud mouth Yankee I went down to Mexico.
I didn't have much time to spend, about a week or so.
There I lightly took advantage of a girl who loved me so.
But I found myself a-thinking when the time had come to go...

[Chorus:]
What am I doing hanging round?
I should be on that train and gone.
I should be riding on that train to San Antone,
What am I doing hanging round?

She took me to the garden just for a little walk.
I didn't know much Spanish and there was no time for talk.
Then she told me that she loved me not with words but with a kiss.
And like a fool I kept on thinking of a train I could not miss...

[Chorus]

Well it's been a year or so, and I want to go back again.
And if I get the money, well I'll ride the same old train.
But I guess your chances come but once and boy I sure missed mine.
And still I can't stop thinking when I hear some whistle crying....

[Chorus]
