Lyrics
Veracruz
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Come on, baby, don't you wanna go
Way down south, talkin' 'bout Mexico
Straight through the jungle, out to the sea
We'll have some fun if you fly away with me
Like some old movie in black and white
We'll fall in love in the middle of the night
Chorus:
Me and you, down in Veracruz
Do what you wanna do, down in Veracruz
Come on, baby, don't you wanna come
In the town, people movin' to the drums
Rosa's Cantina, it never stops
Drinkin' cerveza, people party 'til they drop
Forget the laundry, forget the rain
We'll get to heaven on the seven-thirty plane
Chorus 2x
