Juanita Lyrics

David Allan Coe

Well I'm finally gettin' used to the water The way the tarantulas bite Those federals didn't believe I only came here to watch the bulls fight
Tell my mother, "I need a good lawyer" Tell my father, "I'm getting a tan" My sleepy siesta down south of the border Is taking more time than I planned
Oh Juanita somebody betrayed me They've given me ten years to life Juanita I need you to save me I promise I'll make you my wife
I got a big house in Milwaukee With a color TV and a pool A Naugahyde bar and a Cadillac car Juanita they're waiting for you
Tie the burro up down in the courtyard To keep the guard busy tonight When you bring my dinner make sure the tortilla Is filled with a gun or a knife
Hey Juanita somebody betrayed me They've given me ten years to life Juanita I need you to save me I promise I'll make you my wife
Juanita you'll love Wisconsin Wisconsin is gonna love you Yes, all of Milwaukee speaks Spanish Of course you're gonna wear American shoes
Lake Michigan tastes like tequila Frijoles why they grow there on trees You can say adios to the pigs and the goats If you'll just do this one thing for me
But Juanita somebody betrayed me They've given me ten years to life Juanita I need you to save me I promise I'll make you my wife
Juanita, I, I swear it was all a mistake You see I was drowning out there in the ocean And I saw this bale coming by man So I grabbed it and I climbed up on top of it And I found this stick and I rowed myself into shore
And when I got there The border patrol was waiting for me At the I didn't know what it was I promise you if you'll just marry me So I can become a citizen of Mexico
I'll take you to Milwaukee You can meet all my friends They got these big shiny motorcycles And you can ride on the back of 'em with 'em
Really, Juanita would I lie to you?
