Lyrics

Oh signorita When the evening sun go down I come to serenade you From another part of town. Rafaella is my mother's name. She loves her Juan Jose My mother is a matriarch Oh what more can I say Together they raised three children Mario Carmen and Ray They live near de Janeiro On Mona da Vinci Bay I'm gonna eat my rice and beans I'm gonna suck on a chili dog Way down in Spanish Town In the Spanish fog Oh I love you to meet my friend Don Juan He loves to play the mandolin Signoritas they gather 'round' Cause they think that he's a Mexican But I know so much better I'm holding here the proof Don Juan is a gringo boy He's not telling us the truth But he loves his rice and beans He's gonna suck on a chili dog Way down in SpanishTown In a Spanish fog I love you to meet Margarita Margarita she is calling me And I love to hear my name Out the lights and bring on the wine It's Fiesta time again You know I love my Portugal 'Cause she shows me what to do All the roads lead to Mexico, Mexico, Mehico, Mexico, Mehico But they bring me back to you She's gonna eat her rice and beans She's gonna suck on a chili dog Way down in Spanish Town In the Spanish fog Revolution is in the street I can feel it in my blood I can see Allende still crying out But they nip him at the bud Oh they're talking in the alleys Of Old San Juan, Old San Juan All the soldiers gonna walk the trail Big sombreros see them everywhere Zapata lands in jail Ain't gonna eat no rice and beans Ain't gonna suck on nobody's chili dog Way down in SpanishTown In a Spanish fog Way down in Spanish Town
