lyrics
Guadalupe tripped up from Tijuana
She said, "Ooooh, babe, I wanna do it to you
Twenty miles south of San Diego
There's a dirty cantina that sells cold brew!"
"I gotta be back tomorrow night
If you're coming bring your stash and your cool sun rays
Border guards won't put up no fight
I got cold, hard cash and my slick-talking ways!"
We'll lick the salt and we'll suck the lime
We'll drink tequila til we go blind
I got a room and now we're living on Tijuana time
Whoa, Tijuana time
Dancing naked on the veranda like Carmen Miranda
Gotta hand it to you
Fruit in your hair a rose in your teeth
Hand on your hips doing the hoochie-coochie-coo
Chicano boys whistle when you walk
They like the wind blowing up your skirt
Careful not to break my heart
When the sun goes down it's easy to get hurt
We'll lick the salt and we'll suck the lime
We'll drink tequila til we go blind
Take off your watch 'cause now we're living on Tijuana time
Whoa, Tijuana time
Oh Lupe, let me bust your piñata
I think you oughta give me two or three swings
And when the money and the honey and the candy fall out
We'll have to try out those old box springs
Guadalupe tripped up from Tijuana
She said, "Ooooh, babe, I wanna do it to you
All the way back to San Diego
In my '73 Impala, mess up my new hairdo!"
I said, "Thanks Lupe, I enjoyed the ride!"
She said, "Ooooh, don't forget your souvenirs!"
I said, "Would you like to come inside?
I got a greasy spoon and some flat, warm beer!"
We'll lick the salt and we'll suck the lime
We'll drink tequila til we go blind
It sure was nice living down on Tijuana time
Whoa, Tijuana time
Guadalupe tripped up from Tijuana
She said, "Ooooh, Big Daddy, I wanna do it to you!
Nobody but you!"
