Juanita Carmela Garcia down in Juarez Mexico
Her dark flashing eyes hide a secret she'll never let anyone know
All of the boys down in Juarez won't leave Juanita alone
Cause they don't know that Juanita Garcia is really Juanita Jones
One day from north of the border an outlaw rode into town
He won the heart of Juanita and they hid where they'd never be found
She knew that she shouldn't love him he never could make her a home
But still they married in secret and he changed her name to Juanita Jones
Then down from El Paso a sheriff's posse caught him when he was alone
They filled him with lead and they left him for dead
But he managed to make it back home he said
He said Juanita please listen for I know that I'm losing my life
If you want to hold up your head in this town don't let them know you're my wife
Juanita Carmela Garcia down in Juarez Mexico...
Oh they don't know that Juanita Garcia is really Juanita Jones
