Juanita Suarez

(Ed Dillon)
In Mexico City where the girls are so pretty.
It's there that I first met Juanita Suarez.
As she led her burro thro' the streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Tacos and nachos for five pesos!"
For five pesos, for five pesos, crying "Tacos and nachos for five pesos!"
She was a baker, an enchilada maker, and so were her madre y padre before
And they led their burros thro' the streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Tacos and nachos for five pesos!"
She went to a fiesta, took a permanent siesta And that was the finita Juanita Suarez
Now her ghost leads her burro thro' the streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Tacos and nachos for five pesos!"
