Karaoké Heart on Fire in Mexico Abby Anderson

She was a dark haired

Juarez beauty

Flirtin' with the G.I. Joe off duty

Workin' him for tips at a bar in Mexico

One cigarette smoke break by the back door turned into a pack on the hood of his Ford

Where he is now the devil knows

A late night two A.M. mistake but sometimes one time is all it takes

Won't be long now 'fore she starts to show

Can you smell that smoke

Driftin' in the desert wind to San Antone

A wild-eyed señorita becomes a desperate mamacita

You had to go leave a heart on fire in Mexico

Mmh mmh

Mmh mmh

Mmh mmh mmh

Turns out all the big dreams she had didn't look like feedin' mouths on food stamps

So one night she up and drove away

And that baby girl she left survivin'

One day got real tired of cryin'

Grew up mad as hell and countin' down the days

Oh can you smell that smoke

Driftin' in the desert wind to San Antone

A wild-eyed señorita becomes a desperate mamacita

You had to go leave a heart on fire in Mexico

Woah ho oh

Mmh hmm

Mmh hmm

In Mexico woah oh oh

Mmh hmm mmh mmh mmh

No one to care, nowhere to go but in and out of foster homes

She had a dream that burned and she made it out

Rolled into those Texas hills

Had herself a dark-eyed girl

Swore all the tears she cried was a pain she'll never know

Can you smell that smoke

Driftin' in the desert wind to San Antone

A wild-eyed señorita becomes a desperate mamacita

You had to go leave a heart on fire in Mexico

Hmm hmm

Mmh hmm mmh hmm mmh

In Mexico

Mmh mmh

Mmh hmm mmh
