Lyrics Rio de Tenampa (Live) - Los Lobos

I sat at a table and wrote a good song,
About eyes as blue as the sea.
Drank down the whisky
And let out a sigh,
And thought of how things used to be.
Children played on the floor near the bar,
With toys made of wood and string.
Lovers kissed and others laughed
As the band would strum and sing.
Habla me Rio de Tenampa
Canta me canciones de valor
En este rincon del cielo
Dejo mi carino y amor
And I passed once a place we'd go,
To escape the heat of the day.
Tell all the stories of good times and bad,
And hear the violins play.
Habla me Rio de Tenampa
Canta me canciones de valor
