Taos New Mexico

Lyrics

[Verse 1] My mama wrote a letter in she said: "Son, you beter hurry, get home quick Maria's tired of waitin' and you know she started datin' Then she's got her kick" Here I am in jail with no-one to pull my bail And I just wanna go home [Chorus] And when I do I'll never leave Maria alone I'm serving time Taos, New Mexico And I just wanna go home I'm serving time in Taos, New Mexico Never felt so alone [Verse 2] I just had to buy her things like pretty clothes and diamond rings And so much more The thing that I just couldn't see is that she only wanted me Raggin' in poor Here I am in jail with no-one to pull my bail And I just wanna go home [Chorus] And when I do I'll never leave Maria alone I'm serving time Taos, New Mexico And I just wanna go home I'm serving time in Taos, New Mexico Never felt so alone [Verse 3] Those awful nights are long and cold What if she needs someone to hold while I'm away? I can see her by the fire eatin' cheese and getting higher With Don José Here I am in jail with no-one to pull my bail And I just wanna go home [Chorus] And when I do I'll never leave Maria alone I'm serving time Taos, New Mexico And I just wanna go home I'm serving time in Taos, New Mexico Never felt so alone
