I hear Emariachi static on the radio,

and the tubes they glow in the B7dark.

And I'm there with her in Ensenada,

when I'm here in Echo EPark

ECarmeAlita, hold me tighter,

I Ethink I'm sinking Adown.

And I'm Eall strung out on B7heroin,

on the outskirts of Etown.

Well I'm Esitting here playing solitaire,

with my pearl handled B7deck.

The county won't give me no more methadone,

and they cut off your welfare Echeck.

ECarmeAlita, hold me tighter,

I Ethink I'm sinking Adown.

And I'm Eall strung out on B7heroin,

on the outskirts of Etown.

Well I Epawned my Smith Corona,

and I went to meet my B7man.

He hangs out down on Alvarado Street,

by the Pioneer Chicken EStand.

ECarmeAlita, hold me tighter,

I Ethink I'm sinking Adown.

And I'm Eall strung out on B7heroin,

on the outskirts of Etown.

ECarmeAlita, hold me tighter,

I Ethink I'm sinking Adown.

And I'm Eall strung out on B7heroin,

on the outskirts of Etown.
