Michelle Shocked - La Cantina El Gato Negro lyrics

an Miguel de Allende, State of Guanajuato Tourista friendly and welcomes gringos Yo hablo espanol poco, un poco But I speak English muchas bueno Yo hablo Ingles, si, muchas bueno See the novia at la parroquia Across from the jardin where laurel trees grow Cross down a dark street to where honky cats meet There you will find a sign on the door La Cantina el Gato Negro Ai yi yi yi The luckiest man alive Already died so long ago Ai yi yi yi So sad, so sweet, so high So dry your eyes and cry your grito in la Cantina el Gato Negro She sits in a corner with an eye on her daughter Her daughter is making tips dancing on the bar To a band that shakes like a nervous old snake Keeping it's venom in a half empty jar La Cantina el Gato Negro
