El Paso Song
A half smile and a glance
Let's me know you know I'm leaving
I've watched you wait and dance
For the best part of the evening
You skipped past once or twice
So close I heard you humming
And 'plied my favorite vice
Well darling just you keep it coming
Most of my heart has been claimed
And what's left is mostly maimed
But the tiny part that feels alright
Fell in love with you tonight
I'm sure I was looking cool
And I'm sure you would've thought that too, had I
Not spluttered out like a fool
When you were giving me the glad eye
I had planned to ask your name
And say my final cheery oh o
But all I could proclaim
Was donde esta el servedior
My heart's been conquered and tamed
Frozen and roasted and framed
And if it can be where it should be
Just let me know then where it could be
But that cheeky sideways glance you threw
Is probably just what you'd do
When you are so relieved to see
The back of a past lech like me
