Play Me a Song of Nogales by Bob Atkinson

"PLAY ME A SONG OF
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
