I've been in this town so long that back in the city I've been taken for a lost and gone An unknown for a long long time
Fell in love years ago With an innocent girl From the Spanish and Indian home Home of the heroes and villains Once at night Catillion squared the fight And she was right in the rain of the bullets that eventually brought her down But she's still dancing in the night Unafraid of what a dudeÂll do in a town full of heroes and villains
In the cantina Margarita's keep the spirit high There I watched her She spun around and Round in the warmth of her body Fanned the flame of the dance Dance Margarita don't you know that IÂm in love with you Dance Dance
You're under arrest!
My children were raised You know they suddenly rise They started slow long ago Head to toe healthy weathy and often wise
At three score and five I'm very much alive I still got the jive to survive with the heroes and villains
