Burl Ives - Juanita Well I'm finally gettin' used to the water the way the tarantulas bite Those Federales didn't believe I only came here to watch the bulls fight Tell my mother I need a good lawyer tell my father I'm getting a tan My sleepy siesta down south of the border is taking more time than I planned Oh Juanity somebody betrayed me they've given me ten years to life Juanita I need you to save me I promise I'll make you my wife I got a big house in Milwaukee with a color TV and a pool A Naugahyde bar and a Cadillac car Juanita they're waiting for you Tie the burro up down in the courtyard to keep the guard busy tonight When you bring my dinner make sure the tortilla is filled with a gun or a knife Juanity somebody betrayed me... Juanita you'll love Wisconsin Wisconsin is gonna love you Yes all of Milwaukee speaks Spanish Of course you're gonna wear American shoes Lake Michigan tastes like tequila frijoles why they grow there on trees You can say adios to the pigs and the goats if you'll just do this one thing for me But Juanity somebody betrayed me... Juanita I swear it was all a mistake You see I was drowning out there in the ocean and I saw this bale coming by Man so I grabbed it and I climbed up on top of it And I found this stick and I rowed myself into shore And when I got there the Border Patrol was waiting for me At the I didn't know what it was I promise you if you'll just marry me so I can become a citizen of Mexico I'll take you to Milwaukee you can meet all my friends They got these big shiny motorcycles And you can ride on the back of 'em with 'em really Juanita would I lie to you
