Rosita
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.
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.
Kids to feed and their mother's gone,
way up north now I'm alone, I can't stop
tears from filling up my empty glass.
Jose's sitting next to me and he says:
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.
Can't go home 'cause Rosita will dance tonight.
Jose want to cross the border one day,
hit the big time in the U.S.A., he says,
he'll find my wife and bring her back.
One day he'll show up with a cadillac.
Every time they caught him he came back on his feet,
and now he's sitting here unable to leave.
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 trouble go away, and also your money.
I can't go home 'cause Rosita will dance tonight.
I can't go home...
