ROSITA

i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight

woke up this morning too tired to move
gotta keep working or i’m gonna lose my job
three kids to feed and their mother’s gone
way up north now i’m all alone - can’t stop
my tears from filling up my empty glass
josé’s sitting next to me and he says

i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight

rosita is a girl she makes you feel funny
makes your troubles go away and also your money

i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight

josé want to cross the border some day
hit the big time in the USA – he says
he’ll find my wife and bring her back
one day he’ll show up with a cadillac
but everytime they caught him
he came back on his feet
and now we’re sitting here unable to leave

i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight

rosita is a girl she makes you feel funny
makes your troubles go away and also your money

i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight

i can’t go home cause rosita will dance
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance

i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
i can’t go home cause rosita will dance tonight
