Lyrics
I once met a man with a sense of adventure
He was dressed to trill
Wherever he went he said
«Let's make love on a mountain top
Under the stars, on a big hard rock»
I said, «In these shoes? What is this, the Peace Corps?»
I said, «Honey, let’s do it here»
So we’re sitting at a bar in Guadalajara
In walks a guy with a faraway look in his eyes
He says, «I got a powerful horse outside
Climb on the back, I’ll take you for a ride
I know a little place
We can get there 'fore the break of day»
I said «In these shoes?
No way Jose»
I said «Honey, let’s stay right here
No le guta caminar
No puede montar a caballo
Como se puede bailar
Es un escandalo
Then I met an Englishman
«Oh,» he said, «Are you American?»
«Won't you walk up and down on my spine
It makes me feel strangely alive»
I said, «In these shoes?
Oh, I doubt you’d survive»
I said, «Honey, let’s do it»
No le gusta caminar
No puede montar a caballo
Como se puede bailar
Es un escandalo
