Lyrics

In a little border town Way down there in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico Spied a seniorita there Wind blows through her long black hair As I cut a trail on the way to Boys Town Smoke and drink the night away In a dimly lit cafe Long hairs were a novelty to the people that were on the scene We picked the blues 'til early dawn Everybody sang along We had such a ball in Nuevo Laredo Nuevo Laredo, Nuevo Laredo I hear you calling back to me In the time, and all its glory Cuando yo me fui de alli Cuando yo mi amor te di en Nuevo Laredo Y siguiendo una ilusión Que tenía en el corazón Yo me fui de mi Nuevo Laredo Sittin' on an old bar stool Lookin' like nobody's fool Her heart was meant that she was going to go home with only me A great big cat about six foot three Demand that guys she's a goin' with me Then I cut a trail to Nuevo Laredo (goodbye, Nuevo Laredo) Nuevo Laredo, Nuevo Laredo I hear you calling back to me In the time, and all its glory Nuevo Laredo, Nuevo Laredo Nuevo Laredo, Nuevo Laredo
