NOGALES"

(c) 2007 Bob Atkinson

ALONE.....CERVEZA GOING DOWN

CANTINA ..ON THE EDGE OF TOWN

NOT THINKING OF THE HEART

OR WONDERING OF TOMORROW

FREE OF FEAR AND SORROW

IN NOGALES

IN WALKS A SENIORITA

SHE GLIDES AND SWAYS

UP TO THE MARIACHI LEADER

WONDER WHAT SHE SAID

ASKED HIM LATER

AND HE TOLD ME,

I REMEMBER TO THIS DAY

“PLAY ME A SONG OF NOGALES

PLAY ME A SONG OF NOGALES

PLAY ME A SONG JOSE”

MAKE MY HEART BEGIN TO HEAL

MY LOVER HAS GONE TODAY

I’M ALONE IN THIS WORLD

MY EMOTIONS ARE ON DISPLAY

PLAY ME A SONG OF NOGALES

PLAY ME A SONG

TO HEAL ALL THE WRONGS

PLAY ME SOME MELODIES

TO SWAY AND DANCE ALONE

GIVE ME THE STRENGTH

TO FIND NEW ROMANCE

PLAY ME A SONG OF NOGALES

PLAY ME A SONG JOSE

PLAY ME A SONG OF THE HEART

GIVE MY SADNESS SUPPORT

HEALING HURT THAT HAS COME

TURN TEAR FILLED EYES TOWARD FUN

PLAY ME A SONG OF NOGALES

PLAY ME A SONG JOSE

"Not This Time” 

 (c)2007 Bob Atkinson 

and it happened to you
this thing of lost love
I was feelin’ sorry
for all the above

sat to think
with a cold cold drink
pondered over you
and all of your moans

what I should feel
and if I should hold you
how I came to deal with it
and if I was cold fish

can I take you home
and give you some love?
make you smile
with a wiggle and a hug?

bring you peace of mind?
no
not this time

bring you peace of mind?
oh no 
not this time

not this time
don't really care
have other problems
that I'm aware

no need to bother
with others' despair
not that I don't love you
I just won't care


said I should try
to give you a hand
gettin' over sorrow
of some other man

doesn't interest me
what caused you this pain
tuff lucky honey
it's not my game

sat to think 
with a cold cold cold drink
pondered over you
and all of your moans

what I should feel 
and if I should hold you
how I came to deal with it
and if I was cold fish

can I take you home
and give you some love?
make you smile 
with a wiggle and a hug?

bring you peace of mind?
oh no 
not this time

bring you peace of mind?
no 
not this time
