A magical are in The Motor City where beauty abounds...

lyrics

MEXICAN TOWN

AMONG THE BURNED OUT BUILDINGS SCATTERED AROUND
THERES IS ONE SPARKLING JEWEL THAT SHINES IN THE CROWN
OF A CITY ONCE GREAT THE ENVY OF THE WORLD
BUT THE GREATEST TREASURE OF ALL IS THE LOVE OF A GIRL
THIS IS THE WAY IT WENT DOWN IN MEXICAN TOWN
YES THIS IS THE WAY IT WENT DOWN IN MEXICAN TOWN

I WAS SO BLUE I COULDN’T SEE THE STARS IN THE SKY..
THEY WERE HIDDEN FROM VIEW BY THE TEARS IN MY EYES
AND LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT JUST A FEW FEET AWAY
WAS A GIRL WITH A LOVE THAT WOULD SAVE ME ONE DAY
THIS IS THE WAY IT WENT DOWN IN MEXICAN TOWN

THE GAY SENORITAS
SMILING SO SWEETLY
WE DANCED THE NIGHT AWAY
SHE WAS A BEAUTY AND WHEN SHE CAME TO ME
I DIDN’T KNOW WHAT TO SAY
THIS IS THE WAY IT WENT DOWN IN MEXICAN TOWN
