The Mexican ladies where I work spend all day listening to romantic love songs. No song is complete without the word corazon (heart) somewhere in the lyric.


Mexican Girls




The Mexican girls
Spend the day
Listening to songs of love.

Then go home
To four kids
And husbands
Who work too much
Or maybe drink too much
To care.

The Mexican girls
Spend the day
Listening to songs of love.

Then spend their nights
Listening for that knock
On the door that will
Send everyone
Back to the
Dead end of Mexico.

The Mexican girls
And their fantasy of love
It's all that makes life
Bearable!
